The journal generally zeroes in on subjects such as Optoelectronics, Optics, Laser, Semiconductor and Atomic physics. The research on Optoelectronics featured in Progress in Quantum Electronics combines topics in other fields like Quantum well and Infrared. Optical fiber, Nonlinear optics, Wavelength, Ultrashort pulse and Quantum optics are some of the facets of Optics tackled in the journal.
The journal covers Quantum optics research under the subject of Quantum mechanics. The journal covers various topics on Laser such as Semiconductor laser theory, Tunable laser, Lasing threshold, Fiber laser and Stimulated emission. The study on Semiconductor laser theory featured in Progress in Quantum Electronics expounds on the topic of Semiconductor optical gain in particular.
It investigates Atomic physics research which frequently intersects with Laser cooling.
Optoelectronics, Optics, Laser, Quantum optics and Semiconductor are the main subjects of interest in the journal papers. The studies tackled in the journal publications, which mainly focus on Optoelectronics, apply to Detector as well. The Optics study tackled in the journal articles is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Plasma.
Progress in Quantum Electronics tackles a plethora of topics, such as Optoelectronics, Photonics, Laser, Epitaxy and Semiconductor. The journal facilitates discussions on Optoelectronics that incorporate concepts from other fields like Metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy and Dispersion (optics). The Photonics research presented falls under the domain of Optics.
The work on Laser presented in Progress in Quantum Electronics focuses on Semiconductor laser theory in particular. Topics in Epitaxy were tackled in line with various other fields like Chemical vapor deposition and Dielectric. The close relationship between Photonic crystal and Optical fiber is one of the points of interest dissected in Nanotechnology 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 Progress 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 Progress 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 2021 edition, 26.32% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 42.86% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 7.14% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 14.29% of all publications and 35.71% 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.

(2021)For those interested in advancing their knowledge in Materials Science, exploring online options can be a flexible and effective choice. Many students look into the online master's programs which offer focused curricula often completed within a year, helping professionals quickly gain specialized skills without interrupting their careers.
In addition to traditional paths, considering short degrees that pay well can be a strategic move. These programs provide practical knowledge in a condensed timeframe, allowing graduates to enter the job market faster and take advantage of rewarding career opportunities in related fields such as engineering management or product development.
Choosing the right major is crucial for future success. Materials Science intersects with many interdisciplinary areas, and reviewing the good majors in college can provide insights into emerging fields and complementary studies that align well with your interests and career goals.
Moreover, professionals aiming to enhance their communication skills within scientific and technical domains might explore affordable options like the online masters in communications. This degree can be invaluable for effectively conveying complex ideas to diverse audiences, a key skill in research, industry collaboration, and leadership roles.
