Publications
Research articles arising from the conference will be considered for publication as regular papers in Nanotechnology, IoP Publishing (IF=3.44), in the “/Tunneling through Nanoscience/” special issue.
The manuscripts, which could be loosely related to the conference presentation, will be subject to the same review process, high editorial standards and quality requirements as for all articles in Nanotechnology. Further details, including a dedicated collection webpage will be available soon.
They should also be within the scope of the journal and must be submitted no later than January 10th, 2019.
