The journal mostly deals with topics like Optoelectronics, Optics, Laser, Semiconductor laser theory and Photonics. Most of the works presented in IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics deals with Optoelectronics but it intersects with the subject of Quantum well. Wavelength, Optical fiber, Fiber laser, Optical amplifier and Optical pumping are all areas of Optics tackled in it.
The Optical fiber research dealing mostly with Photonic-crystal fiber is the focus of the journal. IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics focuses on Laser as well as the interrelated topic of Gallium arsenide. Semiconductor laser theory works presented in it have a specific focus on Quantum dot laser.
The presentations discussing Photonics offer insights in topics such as Silicon photonics and Photonic integrated circuit.
The published articles primarily focus on research topics in Optoelectronics, Optics, Laser, Semiconductor laser theory and Photonics. The published articles dive deep in exploring the relationship between the study of Optoelectronics and Quantum well. The presentations in the most cited articles discussing Optics offer insights in topics such as Fiber laser, Wavelength, Optical fiber, Wavelength-division multiplexing and Optical pumping.
The foci of IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics are Optoelectronics, Laser, Optics, Semiconductor laser theory and Diode. Responsivity, Photodiode, Waveguide (optics), Photodetector and Photonics are Optoelectronics topics of special interest in it. The close relationship between Photonic crystal and Filling factor, Equilateral triangle, Isosceles triangle, Coupling coefficient of resonators and Turn (geometry) is one of the points of interest dissected in Laser research.
Most of the Optics studies addressed also intersect with Power (physics). The studies in Semiconductor laser theory featured incorporate elements of Thermal, Group (mathematics), Numerical stability, Optical communication and Laser linewidth. The presented Diode research focuses mostly on Active laser medium and, on occasion, topics in Fabry–Pérot interferometer, Optical parametric oscillator, Gallium nitride, Light-emitting diode and Energy level.
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 IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics (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 IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics (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 2022 edition, 1.54% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 26.56% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 3.12% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 6.25% of all publications and 64.06% 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.

(2020)Exploring a Physics degree in the USA opens doors to various interdisciplinary fields and career opportunities. For example, combining physics with criminal justice can lead to specialized roles in forensic science. Understanding the financial prospects of such paths can be aided by checking the forensic science degree salary, which highlights earning potential and job outlooks.
Beyond science-focused careers, physics graduates often develop strong analytical skills useful in administrative and leadership roles. Positions like athletic directors require organizational abilities and strategic thinking. Those curious about this role can learn more about what does an athletic director do to understand daily responsibilities and career trajectory.
For individuals interested in advancing their education, pursuing an education doctorate might be a rewarding path. This is especially relevant for those aiming at leadership or academic roles. Information on flexible options is available through listings of the edd degrees that offer convenience alongside quality education.
Additionally, a Physics background paired with creativity can complement careers in design and technology. Those exploring artistic and technical pathways may find valuable programs by reviewing the top graphic design programs online, blending science with visual innovation.
