APL Photonics. My manuscript was reviewed by three reviewers, whose level was very high, who can point out the flaws of the research. At the same time, the speeds of review and publication were very fast, and it was good that the article can be interviewed by Scilight.

The photonics journal created by AIP has strict reviewers and basically requires 4 reviewers to review. But the review speed is also relatively fast. Basically, there will be feedback for a round of review within more than a month. The latest impact factor of 2019 is 4.864, which is expected to break 5. It is another good choice for submission to an optics journal in physics.

AIP's new journal for photonics, which is in the same series as APL, but the impact factor of the first year is higher than that of APL. The current number of manuscripts received is relatively low, but it is very strict for the review of manuscripts, and the impact factor should continue to rise. It aims should be above OL, OE and other established journals.

Hello, is there a proofreading step at the end?

(0) Thank | cyn1111

In the field of Photonics, the recognition is good, the reviewers are very professional, and the publication speed is also very fast. I feel that although the impact factor of most Photonics journals has decreased, domestic journals have not decreased, so it can only be considered a decrease. It has always been in the first quartile before, and I hope it can return to the first quartile next year.

What happened later? My application for Securing Associate Editor has been stuck for 12 days with no updates...

Submitted in August last year, a total of three reviewers were assigned for this journal, as it requires at least three reviewers. The first two reviewers responded quickly, but the third reviewer took at least two to three months to provide feedback, which was too slow. After major revisions, the paper was accepted directly, taking over 160 days, which still felt a bit slow, mainly due to the delay in finding the third reviewer.

The deputy editor has been assigned, and it has been twelve days since the deputy editor took over, but there has been no movement at all. It has been a total of thirty-five days, I don't know what's going on!!!!!!

It has been nearly twenty days, and there is still no Associate Editor assigned. The efficiency is too slow, and we are relying on this article to graduate with a PhD.

Hello, I would like to ask if it is necessary to check the plagiarism rate before submitting to APL Photonics. Thank you.

Generally, WORD does not require any specific format as long as all the necessary information is included.

The journal has a good reputation. It has been 11 days since submission, but an Associate Editor has not been assigned yet.

Hello, I would like to ask if there is a downloadable Word template for submitting to the APL Photonics journal. It seems that only a LaTeX template is available on their official website.

Submission Check by Editorial Office Started. I have been waiting for two weeks

(0) Thank | xx

Submission to formal acceptance takes exactly 3 months, with the responsible editor going online to handle progress once every 15 days, showing a very clear process

May I ask what happened in the end?

Do I have to pay the fee? Why can't I find it on the official website?

Do I have to pay a fee to submit a manuscript? Can I submit without paying?

I would like to ask everyone, how long does it take for a manuscript to be sent for review after it is in the hands of the deputy editor?

(0) Thank | 罗土林

Accepted for publication after revisions. The whole process from submission to publication took approximately two months

(1) Thank | Ed_young

From submission to acceptance, it takes about 45 days in total. The editor found three reviewers, but one declined to review, so there were actually two reviewers. The publication fee is relatively high
