Materials Today Energy mostly deals with topics like Electrochemistry, Anode, Catalysis, Electrode and Electrolyte. The work on Electrochemistry tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like Oxide and Aqueous solution. Topics in Anode were tackled in line with various other fields like Battery (electricity), Cathode, Ion, Lithium and Carbon.
Topics in Catalysis explored in Materials Today Energy were investigated in conjunction with research in Electrocatalyst, Methanol, Nanoparticle, Overpotential and Oxygen evolution. The study on Oxygen evolution presented in Materials Today Energy intersects with the topics under Water splitting. Some problems in Electrode that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Composite material and Nanotechnology.
The journal explores issues in Nanotechnology which can be linked to other research areas like Energy conversion efficiency and Energy storage. The Electrolyte research presented places emphasis on topics like Ionic conductivity and Faraday efficiency. The journal focused on Supercapacitor research conducted under the discipline of Capacitance.
The published articles primarily focus on research topics in Nanotechnology, Supercapacitor, Electrolyte, Electrode and Electrochemistry. Perovskite (structure), Photovoltaic system, Water splitting and Energy conversion efficiency are some topics wherein Nanotechnology research discussed in the most cited papers has an impact. The studies on Electrolyte discussed at the most cited papers can also contribute to research in the domains of Battery (electricity), Cathode, Zinc and Energy storage.
The journal aims to foster the development of research in Optoelectronics, Catalysis, Electrochemistry, Anode and Electrolyte. While Optoelectronics is the focus of Materials Today Energy, it also provided insights into the studies of Perovskite (structure) and Energy harvesting. Catalysis research featured in Materials Today Energy incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Electrocatalyst, Carbon, Nanotechnology, Overpotential and Oxygen evolution.
The Electrochemistry research presented falls under the domain of Electrode. Materials Today Energy holds forums on Anode that merges themes from other disciplines such as Ion, Lithium, Cathode and Metal. The work on Electrolyte tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like Battery (electricity), Oxide and Polymer.
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 Materials Today Energy (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 Materials Today Energy (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, 2.34% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 28.42% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 13.70% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 13.01% of all publications and 44.86% 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.
