'Microwaves' unique spectral region spans a wavelength range of more than six decades, from 30 meters to 30 micrometers (MHz-THz).Journal of Microwaves is a model for, rather than simply a participant in, our changing future. This journal is both a celebration of the successful integration of microwave technology into our world and a call to arms.Over the foreseeable future, this journal will help to highlight the science, technology, applications, and accomplishments of researchers in the microwave field. Microwaves strive to be a technical journal of the highest possible caliber, showcasing contributed and rigorously peer-reviewed papers that span the wide range of disciplines and applications that the field encompasses. Microwaves is also an archival teaching platform that will carry invited review articles and selected topical reports that summarize specific experimental methods, technologies, applications, and manufacturing techniques that our renowned editors feel are essential reading for everyone in our discipline. Microwaves will add news and opinions that are helping to shape our community and its influence on society, through contributions from both editors and authors, in order to give perspective to the science and technology advances highlighted in the journal. Finally, Microwaves will anchor our field to the past and catapult us into the future, with historic perspectives and biographies, and special interviews with notable scholars in several continuously running series: Microwave Pioneers, Microwaves are Everywhere, Women in Microwaves, and Breakthroughs in Microwaves.
