I have submitted to this journal myself twice now; the first review cycle was more than 2 months; the second time was a bit long, close to 5 months; I feel the review cycle could be faster; however, once your article is revised it seems vastly improved (at least in my case). However, the IF of this journal is decreasing…

I have submitted three times in the past two years, and the time from submission to acceptance has generally not exceeded one month. I hope that my future submissions can be promoted to a higher level.

The review was very fast, with feedback on revisions returned within a week. There was a 14-day revision period, which was extended by 14 days. The revised manuscript was accepted the day after resubmission, and proofs were sent back within three days of acceptance. The paper was published within a week of proofing. The whole process took a little over a month, which was still quite fast

Submitted in July last year, received reviewer comments in August this year. It took half a year to find a reviewer. I conducted experiments on localized surface plasmon resonance enhancement, which is not a niche field. I had to wait for a year before it was accepted. It was really frustrating, as I graduated before it was published.

Still looking for reviewers after 2 months, I don't know what this editor is thinking. If no one is reviewing, just replace them and stop waiting. It's frustrating!

2021.3 with editor (about a week)
2021.3 under review
2021.6 Accepted with minor revisions
The whole process took about 3 months, which is quite fast. However, I am a bit speechless about the journal's dropping in the ranking. How did it go from an Impact Factor of 2.4 to being in the 4th quartile?

Looks like a lot of people, the influence is not rising.

This journal has been brilliant, but now the impact factor is falling down, sad...

The first paper of academic career.I selectd in mid-October last year and did not receive any revisions until the end of March this year.It was acceptd one week after the minor repair.It feels that the difficulty is not great, that is, the review period is too long, and it is no longer necessary to select for plasmonics.

has submitted twice, and has also reviewed several articles.It is generally one month for the reviewer to review the manuscript. Generally, the two reviewers will follow the reviewer if the opinions are different, and the cycle will be prolonged.The second manuscript was reviewed for more than two months, but the direct employment was not modified.Personal feelings can basically be submitted for review, and the reviewers have a great role. The deputy editors generally focus on the reviewers' opinions, and the reviewers are good, and they will basically accept them.In general, it is a mid-level journal in the field of plasma optics. The articles are uneven, originality is general, and it is worse than PRB, APL, OL, OE. Plasma optics and micro-nano optics, personal feeling and IEEE PTL andAPE grades almost

Submitted in August 2014, the plasmon phenomenon of the inner surface of the fiber was made and received after minor repairs.The revision is mainly due to some theoretical explanations that are unclear and require additional supplements.Then the language needs to be improved.The final draft added a page of text, it seems that the entire article has also gone up the grade, the structure is more reasonable.At the end of February, 15 years, another article was submitted, and the small revision was still waiting for the result.
