Electrocatalysis (Springer, # IF 3.1)



Electrocatalysis is cross-disciplinary in nature, and attracts the interest of chemists, physicists, biochemists, surface and materials scientists, and engineers. Electrocatalysis provides the unique international forum solely dedicated to the exchange of novel ideas in electrocatalysis for academic, government, and industrial researchers. (3.1 Impact Factor)

Nanotechnology (IOP, # IF 3.9)



IOP Nanotechnology™ aims to publish original research at the forefront of nanoscale science and technology across all disciplines. The journal’s scope encompasses the study of both fundamental phenomena at the nanoscale and applications of these phenomena. Research on the synthesis of materials should contain a significant innovation either in methodology, materials or demonstrated application. (Impact Factor:3.9)

Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry (Springer, #IF 2.7)



The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry is devoted to all aspects of solid-state chemistry and solid-state physics in electrochemistry, publishing novel papers on all aspects of electrochemical science and technology (E-chem S&T) of solid compounds, including experimental and theoretical, basic and applied works. It equally publishes papers on thermodynamics and kinetics of electrochemical reactions, if at least one actively participating phase is solid. Also of interest are articles on the transport of ions and electrons in solids, whenever these processes are relevant to electrochemical reactions and on the use of solid-state electrochemical reactions in the analysis of solids and their surfaces.
