Scope/Description:

In 1983, the two journals, Journal of Vacuum Science and Technology A and B were launched when the original Journal of Vacuum Science and Technology was split. JVSTA is devoted to publishing reports of original research, letters, and review articles on interfaces and surfaces of materials, thin films, and plasmas. JVSTA publishes reports that advance the fundamental understanding of interfaces and surfaces at a fundamental level and that use this understanding to advance the state of the art in various technological applications. The scope includes, but is not limited to, the following topics: -Applied and fundamental surface science -Atomic layer deposition -Electronic and photonic materials and their processing -Magnetic thin films and interfaces -Materials and thin films for energy conversion and storage -Photovoltaics, including inorganic and organic thin-film solar cells -Plasma science and technology, including plasma-surface interactions, plasma diagnostics plasma deposition and etching, and applications of plasmas to micro- and nanoelectronics -Surface engineering -Thin film deposition, etching, properties, and characterization -Transmission electron microscopy, including in situ methods -Tribology

Impact Factor

Impact factor (IF) is a scientometric factor based on the yearly average number of citations on articles published by a particular journal in the last two years. A journal impact factor is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field. Find out more: What is a good impact factor?


III. Other Science Influence Indicators

Any impact factor or scientometric indicator alone will not give you the full picture of a science journal. There are also other factors such as H-Index, Self-Citation Ratio, SJR, SNIP, etc. Researchers may also consider the practical aspect of a journal such as publication fees, acceptance rate, review speed.

H-Index

The h-index is an author-level metric that attempts to measure both the productivity and citation impact of the publications of a scientist or scholar. The index is based on the set of the scientist's most cited papers and the number of citations that they have received in other publications
