This Journal is the 442nd out of 2,084 Physics journals. This Journal is the 445th out of 1,481 Materials Science journals. This Journal is the 759th out of 2,661 Chemistry journals. This Journal is the 2260th out of 11,479 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 20% in the science branch of Physical Sciences.
How are inpact factors calculated?
The impact factor (IF) is calculated by counting citations from peer-reviewed journals only.
extended IF also counts citations from books and conference papers. However, no patent, abstract, working papers, online documents, etc., are covered.
