Nanotechnology

Aims & Scope

Nanotechnology aims to publish original research at the forefront of nanoscale science and technology across all disciplines.

The journal's scope encompasses the study of both fundamental phenomena at the nanoscale and applications of these phenomena. 'Nanotechnology' is taken to include the ability to individually address, control, and modify structures, materials and devices with nanometre precision, and the synthesis of such structures into systems of micro- and macroscopic dimensions such as MEMS based devices.

To be publishable in the journal, articles must meet the highest scientific quality standards, contain significant and original new science, and make substantial advances in nanoscale science and technology.

Research on the synthesis of materials should contain a significant innovation either in methodology, materials or demonstrated application.

To ensure high editorial standards, every submitted article is initially assessed by the editors of the journal before being sent to independent referees.

Articles can be rejected without refereeing after this initial assessment by the editors.

Due to the high volume of papers that we receive, we regret that we are unable to provide feedback on individual articles.

Authors appealing against the decision will have to demonstrate to the Editorial Board of the journal at
