Primary research showing clear conceptual advances
Nanoscale Horizons is an innovative, community-focused journal, guided by world-renowned editorial board members. We strive to showcase research that demonstrates a new concept, rather than focusing on technological improvements or higher performance values.
Readers can expect cutting-edge, community-spanning research that bridges the various disciplines involved with nanoscience and nanotechnology.
Authors can expect international exposure, rapid times to publication and efficient peer review. This journal is a collaborative venture between the Royal Society of Chemistry and a leading nanoscience research centre, the National Center for Nanoscience and Technology (NCNST) in Beijing, China.
Editorial Board Chair, Harold Craighead
Cornell University, USA
Harold has been at the forefront of nanofabrication and application of nanosystems for research and device manufacture throughout his career, with experience spanning both industry and academia.

Synthesis of aerogels: from molecular routes to 3-dimensional nanoparticle assembly
Felix Rechberger and Markus Niederberger
Nanoscale Horiz., 2017,2, 6-30
DOI: 10.1039/C6NH00077K
Review Article
Inorganic aerogels are synthesized by molecular routes or through the gelation of nanoparticle dispersions. We review the different approaches and illustrate the self-assembly into macroscopic monolithic bodies.
