Scope of the Journal
Photon Science publishes cutting-edge photon-based scientific research and technical innovations.
Photon Science is a highly interdisciplinary journal focusing on, but not limited to, scientific studies of chemical transformation and energy materials based on photon, electron, and neutron facilities. The word “photon” here is representative of particles in modern scientific facilities.
Photon Science also reports breakthroughs in instrumentation, methodology, and big-data research with demonstrations or potential for chemistry and materials science.
More information can be found here.
Correspondence should be addressed to the Editor-in-Chief at eic@photonsci.acs.org.
Manuscript Types
Article
Articles should report a significant advance in the field of photon science, being characterized by the editor and referees as in the top 10% of advances in the field. Articles must exhibit high scientific quality, originality, clarity, significance, and conceptual novelty.
Articles should describe the research concisely and accurately. While there are no page length restrictions, a suggested guideline is around 7,000 words, including the abstract, main text, tables, and legends (excluding References and Supporting Information). References should accurately represent previous theoretical and practical research that has guided the development of the hypothesis and experimental aspects of the work reported. The abstract should be limited to 300 words, summarizing the research context, key results, and conclusions. No references may be cited in the abstract, and abbreviations and acronyms should not be introduced unless essential. Additionally, articles should include 5-10 lowercase keywords and a graphical TOC entry to visually highlight the importance of the research outcomes.
Communication
Communications are restricted to reports of unusual urgency, timeliness, significance, and novelty with respect to photon science. A brief statement explaining how the manuscript meets the criteria of urgency should be included in the author’s cover letter.
A Communication must convey the scientific findings concisely in abstract, main text, and graphical elements as determined by word count not exceeding 2200 words, including titles/footnotes/captions of approximately five graphics (typically 2 inches long in a single column). References are not included in word count but should be up to 50 references. All graphics and tables must be placed near the point of first mention in the text of the manuscript. Long notes are not permitted in the References section; information not directly germane to the Communication can be included as Supporting Information.
Review
Reviews are comprehensive, critical examinations of a selected topic, with a focus on forward looking to future research opportunities. Reviews are expected to critically evaluate published work of multiple, international groups in a field or across disciplines; be logically organized; be of general interest to the journal readership; and make the material more easily accessible to those not expert in the area through clear text and figures. Reviews should lay out the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead and provide critical discussions that can help move the field forward. Reviews should contain an abstract (≤ 300 words), a graphical TOC entry, and appropriate references. The use of graphics to illustrate key concepts within the text is strongly encouraged.
A Review should generally not exceed 12,000 words including the abstract, main text, tables, and legends, excluding references. Most Reviews are expected to be substantially shorter in length, although the length should be ultimately dictated by the subject matter. If necessary, a vocabulary section can be provided, defining 5-7 terms from the text in one or two sentences.
Reviews are submitted in response to an invitation from the Editor or the author’s proposal. Authors interested in submitting a Review are strongly encouraged to contact the Editors prior to manuscript preparation and submission, to seek conditional approval of the proposed topic. A single document consisting of the following information should be sent to the Editor-in-Chief (eic@photonsci.acs.org) for consideration.
Proposed title
Corresponding author names, affiliations, and websites
A short (~400 words) description of the focused topic
A list of 5-10 lead references
A list of recent review articles published on this topic and an explanation of how the proposed review will differ in focus and advance the literature on the subject.
Perspective
Perspectives are brief personal accounts of a field or area by one or a small team of authors. Perspective authors are asked to assess the status of the field with an emphasis toward identifying key recent advances, critical challenges for the field, and notable opportunities going forward. Perspective can also elaborate on important unanswered questions and approaches being taken to address them. Perspectives are focused rather than comprehensive. The primary goal of a Perspective is to inspire and help direct future research efforts. Perspective may not exceed 5,000 words including the abstract (<300 words), main text, and graphical elements, up to 50 references that demonstrate the full range of activities in the field. A TOC graphic is required for this type of manuscript.

Proposed title
Corresponding Author names, affiliations, and websites
A short (~400 words) description of the focused topic
A list of 5-10 lead references
A list of recent review/perspective articles published on this topic and an explanation of how the proposed perspective will differ in focus and advance the literature on the subject.
Methods/Protocols
Methods/Protocols are articles describing methods and protocols of broad interest to the photon science community. The goal of this manuscript is to provide photon science researchers with detailed, actionable experimental protocols that can serve as valuable references, helping them advance their research and ensuring consistent, high-quality results across the field. These Methods/Protocols manuscripts will start with a short review of the area, followed by detailed descriptions of procedures, helpful insights, and warnings about potential pitfalls and safety concerns. There is no set length, and authors are encouraged to include videos and photographs of experiments and apparatus in the Supplementary Information, as well as additional details to ensure reproducibility.
