Aims and Scope
Publishing original papers on fundamental and applied research in plasma chemistry and plasma processing, the scope of this journal includes processing plasmas ranging from non-thermal plasmas to thermal plasmas, and fundamental plasma studies as well as studies of specific plasma applications. Such applications include but are not limited to plasma catalysis, environmental processing including treatment of liquids and gases, biological applications of plasmas including plasma medicine and agriculture, surface modification and deposition, powder and nanostructure synthesis, energy applications including plasma combustion and reforming, resource recovery, coupling of plasmas and electrochemistry, and plasma etching. Studies of chemical kinetics in plasmas, and the interactions of plasmas with surfaces are also solicited. It is essential that submissions include substantial consideration of the role of the plasma, for example, the relevant plasma chemistry, plasma physics or plasma–surface interactions; manuscripts that consider solely the properties of materials or substances processed using a plasma are not within the journal’s scope.

Old and prestigious journal, a top journal in the field of plasma processing, only publishes one volume per year, with only about 85 papers accepted. There was one year when they only accepted 72 papers.

It was founded by the late Professor Pfender from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Minnesota.

Many influential and remarkable papers from predecessors have been published in this journal, showing respect...

I was lucky enough to get one published, which took a year from submission to acceptance and went through three rounds of revisions. The journal is very rigorous and responsible. It is an established journal in the field of plasma, but it doesn't have a high publication volume. Its impact factor and ranking are slightly lower, and it has a lower cost-effectiveness ratio. The reason I submitted to this journal was more because of a kind of sentiment.
