physica status solidi (RRL) is devoted to the thorough peer review and the rapid publication of new and important results in all fields of solid state physics and materials science, from basic science to applications and devices.

physica status solidi (RRL) - Rapid Research Letters, is presently the fastest peer-reviewed publication medium in solid state physics. The journal offers extremely fast publication times. Typicall are less than 14 days from submission to online publication. It communicates important findings with a high degree of novelty and need for express publication, as well as other results of immediate interest to the solid state physics and materials science community. All manuscripts enjoy priority handling by the Editorial Office. Published Letters require positive approval by at least two independent referees.
The journal covers topics such as preparation, structure and simulation of advanced materials, theoretical and experimental investigations of the atomistic and electronic structure, optical, magnetic, superconducting, ferroelectric and other properties of solids, nanostructures and low-dimensional systems as well as device applications. Rapid Research Letters particularly invites papers from interdisciplinary and emerging new areas of research.
