About the Journal of Advances in Nanotechnology
The Journal of Advances in Nanotechnology (JAN) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal of non-clinical nanoscience and nanotechnology research. It has been published by Open Access Pub since 2018.
Research on matter at the nanoscale
JAN serves materials scientists, chemists, physicists and engineers who study how matter behaves, and can be engineered, at the nanoscale.
JAN publishes fundamental and applied research on the synthesis, characterization, properties and applications of nanomaterials and nanostructures. Its scope is non-clinical nanoscience and nanotechnology, across physics, chemistry, materials science and engineering, from single atoms and molecules to working devices.
Its aims are to publish methodologically sound research that advances the understanding and use of nanoscale systems, to support reproducible reporting of materials, methods and data, and to make the results freely available to everyone who can use them.
The journal welcomes contributions from every discipline that works at the nanoscale. The Aims and Scope page describes the research areas and eligibility in full.

The Editor-in-Chief leads the journal's editorial direction and oversees its decisions, supported by an international editorial board of researchers who handle manuscripts within their expertise and advise on the journal's scope and policies.
Editorial decisions are based on scope, scientific quality, methodological rigor, ethical compliance, reporting quality, and relevance to the journal. They are independent of the article processing charge and of any fee-relief inquiry. Editors with a conflict of interest are recused from handling the manuscript.
Peer review
All submissions undergo initial editorial screening. Manuscripts that meet the journal's scope and minimum requirements proceed to independent peer review. Single-blind by default; double-blind review is available on request. Manuscripts that proceed to external peer review are normally evaluated by at least two independent subject-matter experts. The full process is set out in the Editorial Policies.
Open access and preservation
All articles are free to read, download, copy and distribute from the day of publication. They are published under CC BY 4.0, and authors retain copyright. See Copyright and License.
JAN articles are deposited in Portico, a not-for-profit digital-preservation archive, and each article carries a Crossref DOI. Catalog records, DOI registration and discovery services are described on the Indexing page.
