QUALITY ASSESSMENT CRITERIA FOR IOP JOURNALS
Q1 Makes major contributions to the advancement
of the subject world-wide (top 15%) Q2 Good quality work - original and internationally
competitive Q3 Borderline work of limited interest Q4 Low quality work - adds little or no new
knowledge Q5 Poor work, clearly unsuitable
Q1 or Q2 papers are expected Q3 papers unlikely to be accepted Q4 or Q5 papers will be rejected

What determine your quality Original work, novel and significant Interest to the community Have sound motivation and purpose Not previously published Not under consideration for publication in
any other journal or any other form Scientific quality not quantity of papers Ethical code:
Research results – true, properly recorded Authorship practices – who can be your co-authors
Helpful techniques for writing your paper Focus on new and important research
results Make sure the language is clear and
precise, especially your conclusions Ensure that figures and tables are clear Ensure that the paper is of the right
length
Something to avoid Presenting new but trivial or obvious results Making unsubstantiated conclusions Burying new results beneath too much scene-setting Recapping of findings already published Presenting incremental research
Being long winded – keep short ‘Flowery’ language Abbreviations and jargon Speculation or anecdotes – keep to the facts A ‘gimmicky’ title makes wild, unjustified claims Poor or incomplete references Poor quality figures Incomplete data Don’t cover up or ‘fudge’ the data
More helpful tips Allow time for rewriting Use figures instead of tables Ask a colleague to read and comment on an early
draft Check the structure of the paper:
Title – proper and complete Abstract – more details, key words, PACS Introduction – history, why, what you have done Method – details and standard Results and Discussion – fact and more Conclusion – what you have achieved References – objective and up-to-date
Selecting the journal Choose the right one for you
电子投稿 Electronic Submission
对所有 IOPP 期刊,可直接电子邮件投稿至
E-mail: mingfang.lu@iop.org
在标题栏中用英文注明电子投稿及所投期刊 标准格式,如 : Electronic submission to JPCM
稿件(附件) + 英文投稿信 (Cover Letter)
适用于所有 IOP 期刊,简单、快速、可靠!
或网上直投: Online submission
Process at the journal Via esub@iop.org or Online – temporary ID, but
unable to track your paper, e.g. CM/T123052/FTC/29135/
Editor acknowledges your paper, assign a ref number, e.g. CM/337116/PAP/183301
Pre-screening process Editor selects referees for the paper Referees send their reports back to the Editor Editor makes decision based on referee reports Adjudicator is selected if the reports are conflicting
What referees do for your paper? Independent assessment by experts in the field Referees provide constructive criticism and
feedback on your paper A ‘filter’ for scientific quality control Publishing a paper in a peer-reviewed journal
gives more credibility to your work than if you post it on your own web site
Peer review is an essential part of publishing in a journal or obtaining a grant
Referees’ assessment: Scientific Quality Scientific merit: significant new results and
originality Accurate and correct Sufficient discussion of the context of the
work, and suitable referencing Suitable material for the Journal
Referees’ assessment: Presentation Title: is it adequate/appropriate? Abstract: is it complete by itself and suitable
for direct inclusion in an abstracting service? Diagrams, tables, and captions: are they clear
and essential? Text and mathematics: are they brief but still
clear? Conclusion: does it summarise what has been
learned and why it is interesting and useful? References: objective and up-to-date Clear writing and communication of ideas,
readability and discussion of concepts
International Refereeing Fully international refereeing is possible
through the internet
We still need more referees from China Account for 2.7% of the total referee reports
Volunteer at http://referees.iop.org or contact the IOP journal where you have
published
Responding to referees’ comments
Read referees’ report and put away for a day! Read them again! Respond to each and every comment
specifically Keep a list of your changes Where you disagree, explain why If referee misses a point it is not necessarily
his/her fault Be polite! Prepare a detailed covering letter with your
response
If your paper is rejected
Do not despair: treat referees’ comments as a free expert advice
You may be able to re-write your article taking into account the suggestions of the referees and re-submit it
Note: If you re-submit the paper to any IOP journal, you need to add enough significant new results in it
If you think the review was unfair, appeal to the journal by sending a letter and explaining why you think your work did not receive a fair treatment
If your paper is accepted Great - celebrate! The journal will expect you to check your
proofs rapidly Nominate another person if you are
unavailable Give one copy of proofs to somebody else

IOP 北京代表处提供稿件预审和免费英文修改服务
国内稿件质量不齐 , 低质量论文对高水平论文带来不利影响,造成多种浪费 — 时间、声誉
对稿件内容水平和写作把关,增加可读性 国际审稿时加速审稿过程 , 增加可接受性,提高命
中率 整体上提高学术声誉
被拒稿的国内论文主要存在的一些问题
科学水平不高,追求论文数量。 写作水平和英文水平欠缺,不能正确表达研究结果和对
其进行充分的讨论,难以达到学术交流目的,甚至使审稿人难以相信你的研究结果 – 不一定是偏见。
内容不适合所投期刊,如 JPCM强调基础凝聚态物理,因此,属于材料科学的论文难以被发表
关于如何发表高水平研究论文,请参见: http://www.iop.org/iopbeijing/howto_get_published_in_chinese.html
Top Chinese Papers 2009
几点建议 做好研究工作是写好论文的基础 利用互联网和电子期刊全面检索本领域的研究进展 提早全面准备写论文,不要等到最后 采用标准格式建立参考文献的电子数据库如 Excel 文件
方式,方便以后检索和引用 在研究过程中尽可能采用标准方式记录研究数据,争取形成数据—图表—引用的自动数据链
提早训练写作英语(或其他外语)科技论文,检索一些本领域的范文论文,反复熟记其语言写作特点和语言用法,克服写作自己论文时的语言障碍 , 但切记不可照搬 !
多与老师、同学或同事讨论,认真思考不同的观点 写好第一篇外语论文,不要急于投稿
