The primary areas of discussion in Optical Fiber Technology are Optics, Optical fiber, Optoelectronics, Electronic engineering and Fiber. As a part of Optical Fiber Technology, discussions in Optics involve topics like Fiber Bragg grating, Wavelength, Photonic-crystal fiber, Polarization-maintaining optical fiber and Dispersion-shifted fiber. The Fiber Bragg grating works featured in Optical Fiber Technology incorporate elements from Grating, Long-period fiber grating and PHOSFOS.
Polarization-maintaining optical fiber research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Plastic optical fiber and Graded-index fiber. While the journal focused on Optical fiber, it was also able to explore topics like Composite material and Interferometry. While work presented in it provided substantial information on Optoelectronics, it also covered topics in Surface plasmon resonance and Cladding (fiber optics).
Concepts in Wavelength-division multiplexing, as well as related topics in Computer network, are covered in the Electronic engineering research presented in the journal. Optical Fiber Technology links adjacent topics like Fiber with Core (optical fiber). The study of Laser serves as the foundation of the Fiber laser research discussed in it.
The most cited publications mainly deal with areas of study such as Optics, Optical fiber, Optoelectronics, Electronic engineering and Photonic-crystal fiber. The published articles feature Optics research that overlaps with concepts in Fiber. In addition to Optoelectronics research, the journal publications aim to explore topics under Cladding (fiber optics) and Laser power scaling.
Optical Fiber Technology investigates areas of study like Optical fiber, Fiber, Optoelectronics, Optics and Core (optical fiber). Fiber optic sensor is a major topic of Optical fiber research. The journal focuses on Fiber but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Bending, Multi-mode optical fiber, Sensitivity (electronics) and Interferometry.
The study on Optoelectronics presented is investigated in conjunction with research in Single-mode optical fiber. The journal explores research in Optics alongside concepts in Signal and other areas of study in Electronic engineering and Transmission (telecommunications). In it, Cladding (fiber optics) and Interference (wave propagation) are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Core (optical fiber) research.
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 Optical Fiber Technology (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 Optical Fiber Technology (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, 7.78% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 21.29% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 8.84% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 12.05% of all publications and 57.83% 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.
