“To join as Editor-in-chief is a very exciting move; it constitutes a great opportunity for me to support expanding the leading role of the 澳门六合彩开奖记录 journals in the area of Nanoscience, on one hand, and working with a great editorial team, on the other hand.” - Dirk Guldi, Editor-in-chief.
Free to read
Nanoscale Advances is an international gold open access journal, publishing high-quality research across the breadth of nanoscience and nanotechnology.
We are the first 澳门六合彩开奖记录 journal to be gold open access from launch – allowing a global, interdisciplinary network of nanoscale researchers free access to quality, field-advancing work.
Interdisciplinary & comprehensive
Our focus is high quality, reproducible new work that makes an important advance to the existing literature. With our journals we provide complete coverage of crucial advances.
Affordable gold
All nano researchers should have a quality, subject-focused option for publishing open access. Our APCs are lower than the industry average, and discounts and waivers are available to make publishing open access achievable and sustainable.
Part of the family
Our nanoscale journals work together to make sure research reaches the right audience. A shared editorial board with Nanoscale and partially shared with Nanoscale Horizons allows smooth article transfers and a consistent assessment process.
A trusted society publisher
The Nanoscale Advances publishing experience comes with the reputation, standards, commitment and expertise you would expect from a 澳门六合彩开奖记录 journal, plus the visibility boost that comes from open access and the nanoscale journal family.
Journal scope
Published fortnightly, the journal accepts experimental and theoretical work in the form of communications, full papers and reviews, building on and complementing the nano content already published across the 澳门六合彩开奖记录 journal portfolio.
Nanoscale Advances is a collaborative venture between the 澳门六合彩开奖记录 and the National Center for Nanoscience and Technology (NCNST) in Beijing, China.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Synthesis of nanostructured and nanoscale materials
- Quantum materials
- 2D materials
- Layered materials
- Layered quantum materials
- Characterisation of functional nanoscale materials and bio-assemblies
- Properties of nanoscale materials
- Self-assembly and molecular organisation
- Complex hybrid nanostructures
- Nanocomposites, nanoparticles, nanocrystalline materials, and nanoclusters
- Nanotubes, molecular nanowires and nanocrystals
- Molecular nanoscience
- Nanocatalysis
- Theoretical modelling
- Single-molecules
- Plasmonics
- Nanoelectronics and molecular electronics
- Nanophotonics
- Nanochips, nanosensors, nanofluidics and nanofabrication
- Carbon-based nanoscale materials and devices
- Biomimetic materials
- Nanobiotechnology/bionanomaterials
- Nanomedicine
- Regulatory approaches and risk assessment
Submissions
Submissions are initially assessed and taken through peer-review by our high-profile associate editors, the majority of whom also look after submissions to Nanoscale. A single-anonymised peer review model is used and a minimum of two reviewer reports are required. Our editors are internationally recognised in their respective areas, and taking responsibility for both journals will ensure a common overview and consistent application of expertise, streamlining the assessment process for authors and reviewers.

Peer review
Nanoscale Advances follows a single-anonymised peer review process, with manuscripts handled by experienced associate editors, most of whom also look after submissions to Nanoscale.
Phase 1 - your manuscript is initially assessed by an associate editor.
Phase 2 - the associate editor solicits the expertise of at least two reviewers to assess your article and submit a report.
Phase 3 - the associate editor handling your manuscript makes a decision based on the reviewer reports received. In the event that no clear decision can be made, another senior reviewer will be consulted.
Please refer to our processes and policies for full details including our appeals procedure.
