The journal covers a variety of subjects, including Composite material, Carbon, Adsorption, Activated carbon and Carbon nanotube. The study on Composite material presented in Carbon letters intersects with the topics under Carbonization. The studies tackled, which mainly focus on Carbon, apply to Pyrolysis as well.
While Carbon letters focused on Adsorption, it was also able to explore topics like Inorganic chemistry, Microporous material and Aqueous solution. The Activated carbon works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Porosity, Supercapacitor, Specific surface area and Nuclear chemistry. Carbon letters explores topics in Carbon nanotube which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Nanocomposite, Catalysis and Epoxy.
The Nanocomposite study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Graphene. The work on Graphene tackled in it brings together disciplines like Electrochemistry and Raman spectroscopy.
The journal publications facilitate discussions on Composite material, Graphene, Carbon nanotube, Nanotechnology and Activated carbon. The most cited publications hold forums on Graphene that merge themes from other disciplines such as Graphite and Oxide. The journal publications explore research in Nanotechnology alongside concepts in Carbon and other areas of study in Specific surface area.
The main points discussed in Carbon letters deals with Carbon, Graphene, Activated carbon, Adsorption and Composite material. Supercapacitor, Lithium, Catalysis and Aqueous solution are some topics wherein Carbon research discussed in it have an impact. The research on Graphene featured in it combines topics in other fields like Oxide, Nanocomposite and Raman spectroscopy.
It explores issues in Activated carbon which can be linked to other research areas like Sorption, Nuclear chemistry, Microporous material, Specific surface area and Pyrolysis. The research on Adsorption tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Methylene blue and Mesoporous material. Composite number, Carbon nanotube, Scanning electron microscope, Polymer and Ultimate tensile strength are some of the facets of Composite material tackled in it.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Carbon letters (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Carbon letters (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 6.25% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 13.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.63% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 17.04% of all publications and 60.00% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
