2020.01.05 Submission; one month later, major revision was required; 2020.03.12 revision submitted; 2020.04.08 accepted. It is the current top journal in the field of instrumentation, especially in the field of MEMS. The next class of journals only has an impact factor of two or three. The speed of the review depends on the direction. Our direction is relatively popular, and the review is relatively fast.

First review required a major revision. One rejection, one minor revision. It took half a month to revise and get accepted, but the review is a bit slow.

Is there a submission template available? Or are there no specific formatting requirements?

It should be under review, in the process of being reviewed.

What happened behind?

(0) Thank | 遥远遥远

How long does it take for submissions to be reviewed? It has been a month since I submitted my manuscript, and it has been in the "Under Consideration" status on Research Square. I am not sure if it is still with the editor or if it has been sent for review.

I would like to ask, what does it mean when there is an empty status after "Manuscript Under Consideration"?

It is a domestic journal, selected as one of the journals with the most academic influence in China in 2023. External reviews typically look at the direction, and it is normal for the review process to take two to three months

The first external audit takes about 130 days, and the second one takes around one month.

Is it a domestically produced journal?

May I ask how long the external review took? It has been updated once under consideration in the meantime, but there has been no response. It has been 45 days already.

(0) Thank | DUT-Lu

After sending for external review, it will continuously be "Manuscript Under Consideration". Once the external review is returned, a new "Manuscript Under Consideration" will appear again, and in the following days, there will be "Decision Made" and then "Decision Sent to Author".

Very effective editing team. The feedback on our paper is very professional. It should be a very experienced professor in a small field. Very helpful for both the paper and future research. Thanks again!

Indeed, it is the worst journal I've ever encountered. After making the revisions, they have not provided any updates.

The engineering section in domestic journals is relatively hardcore. I hope it doesn't mislead others when submitting contributions.
