Guide for Authors
INTRODUCTION
Types of paper
Contributions falling into the following categories will be considered for publication.
Article
An Article is a substantial, novel research study of high quality and general interest to the energy, electrochemistry, electronics or environment community. As a guideline, Articles will be limited to 3000 words of main text (excluding the abstract, methods section, references, tables and figure legends), and no more than 8 display items (figures and tables). Articles allow up to 50 references (excluding those cited exclusively in methods). The abstract should be no more than 150 words and is unreferenced; it contains a brief account of the background and rationale of the work, followed by a statement of the main conclusions introduced by the phrase “Here we show” or some equivalent. The introduction should be up to 500 words of referenced text expands on the background to the work, followed by a concise, focused account of the findings. The main text should be divided by succinct topical headings of no more than 60 characters (including spaces) to aid readers. Articles may be accompanied by Supplementary Information and will be subject to rigorous peer review by experts on the subject matter. More details can be found from the manuscript template.
Communication
Communication presents highly influential findings of immediate interest to the broader energy, electrochemistry, electronics or environment community. They are distinct from Articles-Communications are more concise and, above all else, they are evaluated primarily on the importance and technical validity of the findings. Communications must highlight the significance and rigor of the research so the potential scientific impact is obvious to the broad and scale-spanning readership of eScience.
A typical Communication will be limited to 2500 words of text, and no more than four display items (figures and tables). Additional items and details may be published online as Supplemental Information. Communications will be subject to rigorous peer review by experts on the subject matter.
Review
A Review is an authoritative, balanced survey of recent developments in a research field. Although Reviews should be recognized as scholarly by specialists in the field, they should be written with a view to informing non-specialist readers. Thus, Reviews should be presented using straightforward prose, avoiding excessive jargon and technical detail.
Reviews should be no more than 8,000 words long and typically include no more than 10 display items (figures, tables or boxes). As a guideline, Reviews allow up to 120 references; citations should be selective. Footnotes are not used. The scope of a Review should be broad enough that it is not dominated by the work of a single research institution, and particularly not by the authors' own work. Reviews are always peer reviewed to ensure factual accuracy, appropriate citations and scholarly balance.
Perspective
A Perspective is intended to provide a forum for authors to discuss models and ideas from a personal viewpoint. They are more forward looking and/or speculative than Reviews and may take a narrower field of view. They may be opinionated but should remain balanced and are intended to stimulate discussion and new approaches. Perspectives may also advocate a controversial position or present a speculative hypothesis. Two articles advocating opposite sides in a research controversy are normally published as Perspectives.
Perspectives should not normally exceed 3,000 words. As a guideline, Perspectives allow up to 50 references; citations should be selective. Perspectives should include no more than 4 display items (figures, tables and/or boxes). As with Reviews, many Perspectives are invited by the editors, so it is advisable to send a pre-submission enquiry including a synopsis before preparing a manuscript for formal submission.
Perspectives are always peer reviewed and edited by the editors in consultation with the author.
News & Views
News & Views articles inform readers about the latest advances in the energy, electrochemistry, electronics or environment community field, as reported in recently published papers (in eScience or elsewhere) or at scientific meetings. Unsolicited contributions will not normally be considered, although prospective authors are welcome to make proposals. News & Views articles are not peer reviewed, but undergo editing in consultation with the author. News & Views articles should not normally exceed 1,000 words. As a guideline, Perspectives allow up to 5 references; citations should be selective.
