Frequently asked questions about Nanotechnology

Is Nanotechnology a predatory journal?

PubScope has no integrity flags on record for Nanotechnology: it is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus, and is not on DOAJ's withdrawn list. Indexing is a transparency signal, not a guarantee — always confirm fit and policies before submitting.

What is the impact factor of Nanotechnology?

Nanotechnology is indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection, so Clarivate publishes an official Journal Impact Factor for it (since the 2023 Journal Citation Reports, every Core Collection journal — including Arts & Humanities and Emerging Sources titles — receives one). PubScope links to Clarivate's official source rather than reprinting the number, which can be out of date. Its open 2-year mean citedness is 2.82.

Is Nanotechnology indexed in Scopus and Web of Science?

Nanotechnology is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus.
