The review process was fast, and the comments provided by the reviewers were very professional. ACS Materials Letters is doing well, as the impact factor of materials journals has generally decreased this year, but it has increased. The future looks promising, and it is highly regarded.

Instant IF12.1, just calculated.

Overestimated, the real-time IF is only around 11.

宛陵小红旗 2023-04-21

After two months of review, my paper in the AM series was rejected. The reviewers' comments were completely off the mark, but my boss kept emphasizing his belief in the quality of my work and told me not to be discouraged. Graduation is imminent, and although I already have a paper in a Tier 1 journal, I still feel that as a chemistry graduate student, it is not perfect without a paper in an ACS journal. So, I gathered my spirits and reorganized my thoughts, rewriting the entire article. I felt that the innovation was highlighted once again.

After my boss read it, he suggested choosing between ACS Nano and ACS Materials Letters. After reading the journal profiles, I felt that Nano is more established but has limited space. ACS Materials Letters is positioned as the flagship journal for ACS materials and is known for its rapid publication. I decided to give it a try. I was delighted to receive the editor's approval, and the review process took about a little over a month, which was acceptable. There were three reviewers, all very professional, and their questions were on point. They all gave evaluations in the top 15%. I felt that ACS Materials Letters has high requirements for the novelty of the article and maintains a high quality standard, which aligns with the journal's materials focus. I heard that the real-time impact factor has already exceeded 15, indicating its potential. I will definitely consider submitting to it again if I have good work in the future.

Can this journal keep up with ACS Energy Letters?

Can I apply for the direction of physics and metamaterials? Can someone who has applied before tell me if it is difficult?

I have submitted two articles before, both were reviewed by three reviewers and required three revisions. I have decided not to submit any more in the future as the progress has not been as good as I had imagined.

The phrase "11/16 In peer review" is already in English. It indicates that the mentioned text or document is currently undergoing peer review.

Dr.Jim 2022-11-09

Seeking help from fellow research friends who have submitted before, does assigning an editor mean that the paper can be submitted for review?
Or is it necessary for the editor to make further decisions?

May I ask if "under review" refers to email notifications or updates on the submission website?

I don't believe it! Send a question to see if you have an AM level.

那年那天2020 2021-08-21

The head of the research group said that ACS Materials Letters is on par with AM, so I submitted what I thought was a very good work to ACS Materials Letters. The process was quite complicated, but in the end, it got accepted. The impact factor for this year is only 8.3, which is much lower than expected. I feel like I made a bit of a loss by submitting it there. My boss consoled me by saying that ACS journals have high quality and will be recognized for funding applications in the future. Well, I can only console myself like this. I hope ACS Materials Letters will further improve, at least to be on par with AFM. Otherwise, I will truly feel frustrated.

The review speed of ACS Materials Letters is very fast, and the reviewers are very professional. The journal has high requirements for innovation and mechanism, as it is a flagship materials journal for ACS. The article quality is high, and it has great potential for future development.

Posted on April 27th, first review result on May 29th, submitted revised manuscript on June 26th, notified acceptance on June 29th. The efficiency is very high, and the opinions of the three reviewers are very professional (including experimental and simulated aspects). I have read several articles on it, and the quality is very high.
