Overview
The IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics (T-USON) is the flagship journal of the IEEE UFFC Society. This journal focuses on the publication of major research advances at the forefront of ultrasonics, ferroelectrics, and frequency control. It also actively publishes multidisciplinary research advances that exemplify the synergy between the three technical areas.

IEEE T-USON is a fully online journal that publishes all articles electronically on IEEE Xplore. PDF copies of published articles and related supplementary materials (if there are any) may be downloaded via IEEE Xplore.

Description

Publishing Scope
IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics is a forum for the publication of research and technological advances relating to: 
(1) the generation, transmission, and detection of ultrasonic waves and related phenomena; 
(2) biomedical and industrial ultrasound, including fundamentals, technology and engineering methods; 
(3) piezoelectrics, including materials and devices such as transducers, resonators, crystal oscillators and sensors. Areas of interest range from fundamental studies to the design and/or applications of devices and systems.

 

Article Types
IEEE T-USON will consider manuscript submissions in the following categories:

  1. Original Research: Regular full-length paper that reports a new scientific or technological advance in ultrasonics, ferroelectrics, and frequency control.
  2. Spotlight: Theme-based research paper that is targeted for an upcoming T-USON spotlight issue.
  3. Methods and Concepts: Tutorial paper that pedagogically describes the technical details of important foundational concepts, lab procedures, or fabrication protocols.
  4. Review: Full-length educational paper that curates latest findings and trends on a particular topic.
  5. Perspective: Mini review paper on an emerging research topic.
