The journal investigates studies in Nanotechnology, Optoelectronics, Nanowire, Condensed matter physics and Nanoparticle. The overlapping concepts between Chemical engineering and Catalysis are the key highlights of Nanotechnology study. The Optoelectronics study featured in Nano Letters draws parallels with the field of Optics.
The studies tackled, which mainly focus on Nanowire, apply to Silicon as well. The journal connects the study in Condensed matter physics with the closely related area of Electron. Colloidal gold is a major topic of Nanoparticle research presented in it.
Nanotube is a primary topic of Carbon nanotube research in it. The majority of Graphene studies are focused on the issues of Graphene nanoribbons. Plasmon study tackled is connected to the field of Surface plasmon resonance.
Nanotechnology, Optoelectronics, Nanoparticle, Graphene and Nanowire are the main subjects of interest in the most cited articles. The journal publications facilitate discussions on Nanotechnology that incorporate concepts from other fields like Chemical engineering and Electrode. Issues in Optoelectronics were discussed in the journal articles, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Transistor and Optics.
Optoelectronics, Condensed matter physics, Chemical engineering, Nanotechnology and Nanoparticle are the subjects of interest in the journal. In the Optoelectronics research discussed, Plasmon, Photonics, Semiconductor, Heterojunction and Nanowire are all tackled. The research on Condensed matter physics featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Monolayer, van der Waals force and Graphene.
Chemical engineering research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Electrolyte, Electrochemistry, Catalysis and Anode.
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 Nano 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 Nano 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, 1.99% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 24.87% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 13.62% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 19.71% of all publications and 41.79% 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.
