2019.12.6, submitted to AFM; 2020.12.16, rejected, it was recommended to transfer to Small or Small Methods. Because I need to graduate in this year, I conservatively chose Small; 2020.12.17, submitted to Small after revision; 2020.1.10, revision submitted, both reviewers agree to accept it after modification; 2020.1.17, uploaded after modification; 2020.1.22, accepted. It is the second paper accepted by Small, which is in the electrochemistry direction. The editor has a very good attitude.

The manuscript was submitted on October 7, and it came back on November 8. The editor gave 10 days for revision, and all the comments of three reviewers were positive, thinking that the article was innovative, and all of them recommended it to be published on this journal. A total of nearly 20 comments were raised, which were pertinent. The revision was submitted on the evening of November 13, the review comments were replied in detail, and the discussion of the article was supplemented. The notice was received on November 18, and it was accepted. The efficiency was high, and the editor was nice. It is recommendable.

The article was submitted to AEM on May 5th, recommended to transfer to Small on May 18th, transferred on May 20th. I received major revision decision with 40 comments on July 12th and was required to return the revision in ten days. The comments from the three reviewers were very positive, but many questions were asked, and a lot of experiments were required to add. I wrote to the editorial board to request extending the deadline by a month on July 20th. The agreement was received on the 21st. The revision was submitted on August 1st and accepted on August 30th. Editorial board sent a letter inviting a cover image on September 1st. We agreed after discussing with the boss. We received a proof on September 7th. We submitted the proof, wrote to the editor board and submitted the cover on September 8th. They were online on September 13th. The article has just been published and I hope your attention and citation (DOI: 10.1002/smll.201902605)

2018.7.9 Submission, 7.25 first opinion, two reviewers, one praised the manuscript, one asked for minor revisions, two questions asked, one requiring a major overhaul.  Twenty-two questions, one of which also contained many small problems. Time from first edit to overhaul, ten days. After a week of rework, the 8.21 review returned with the second version. The first reviewer was no problem. The second reviewer praised it and raised eight questions. The editor asked for a five-day overhaul, mainly to change the SI. After four days, I returned to revising the document, and on 9.5, I sent back the third version. The reviewer praised it and said that they could accept it. I asked two very small questions. The editor asked for a five-day minor revision, and I returned it after one day, and they received it on 9.11. I have to say that the questions raised by the second reviewer were very strange.  It may be that the research direction is inconsistent. In general, two months for the entire process is pretty fast.

It has been 11 days since submission, and it is still in the "submitted" status. Last time, there was a change after more than half a month.

May I ask why I have not received a "With Editor" status for my submission to Small after nearly 12 days?

(0) Thank | sq-1s

After submitting to AEM, it is recommended to transfer submissions, so the process is very fast. The first review is completed in three weeks, with half a month given for revisions. The second review was accepted in less than two weeks. Although it is still in the second tier, the recognition and reputation are still good. It is ranked one level higher than C*J in our school's journal classification.

Dear experts, I just received the pre-acceptance file and an email from the editor requesting a format change. However, I am not quite sure about the editor's requirement. Could you please guide me on this? Thank you. Additionally, the editor mentioned that the format requirement for references has changed, and now requires listing the titles of the references. Please keep this in mind when submitting your contributions.

Thank you to the kind editor for giving me the opportunity to make revisions, and the review process was also quick. Submitted on 27th May 2025, reviewed within 2-3 days. Revised on 19th June 2025, with one minor revision (Top 5%) and one rejection, the editor requested a major revision. Submitted for revision on 8th July 2025, and on the same day it was under review.

Hello, may I ask how many days after your article was transferred for review? I transferred from AEM to Small, and the editor said it could be submitted directly for review. Why has my recommended transfer been "with editor" for 4 days?
