"In the ACS system, 'under review' is not the same concept as 'under review' in the Elsevier system. In the former, it means the manuscript is in peer review."

May I ask if you have received the first-instance opinion?

Did you receive the feedback from the first review?

It has been 26 days already, and there is no news at all.

May I ask how long it took for you to receive the reviewer's comments? I am also an editor, and I haven't received anything yet.

May I ask if this journal has any specific requirements for similarity index? My similarity index is 19% overall and 2% for each individual article, and I have already made revisions. I am concerned about the issue of similarity index.

May I ask how you know about these processes? I have been under review since I submitted my application until now.

Dr Li_ 2021-04-26

May I ask how you know it's under review? I have been under review since I submitted it.

星云vs深瞳 2021-04-21

What are the English words for "送审" (under review) and "未送审" (not under review)? The status I see now is "under review", does it mean it has been sent for review? It has been 13 days since submission. Thank you, and good luck to you!

First time submitting to AM, it was rejected without review. Then I submitted to ACS Nano. Submitted initial draft on January 30th, took a break during winter vacation. Received reviewer comments on February 16th, three minor revisions and one major revision (mainly regarding wording), returned in a little over two weeks. Submitted revised manuscript and reviewer comments on March 3rd. Received second round of comments on March 30th, one minor revision requested to add an experiment, other reviewers had no comments. Responded to reviewer comments on April 2nd, coinciding with the Qingming Festival holiday. Received an email from the editor-in-chief on April 6th, stating that the article is provisionally accepted pending formatting changes. Made the necessary changes and resubmitted. Officially accepted on April 7th. The associate editor is Prof. Il-Doo Kim. Thanks to the associate editor and the reviewers. It can be considered as the first article in my doctoral career, taking a little over two months from start to finish and learning a lot throughout the process.

2021.01.30 Submission
Editor: Wolfgang J Parak
Sent for review on the second day after submission.
It has been exactly two months today, 2021.03.30, and there is still no news. It still shows "under review"...
Should I remind them about the submission? I see everyone sharing their experiences, and the initial review usually takes less than a month... It should be rejected faster too...

Don't worry too much, your review comments are considered very good. Generally, the response to the second review takes about a month. Previously, in the laboratory, it was usually like this. Your review comments are generally accepted in the second review, so there shouldn't be any major problems. Relax.

First review took 16 days, with four reviewers, one major revision, and three minor revisions. After the modifications were made, it has been 19 days since submission, and there has been no response yet. I feel extremely uncertain. The second review has already exceeded the time taken for the first review. I am very worried.

The efficiency of ACS NANO in handling manuscripts is really high. Usually, when submitted on the same day, the status of the manuscript changes the next day. The same goes for formatting revisions. When submitted on the same day, it is returned on the same day. It is the fastest journal I have ever submitted to!!!

Mine too, after being hired, I changed the format three times from front to back, and finally the editing department completely re-corrected the language. It was all marked in red, they were really serious and responsible~

Hello, I would like to ask which company you work for in terms of proofreading. Is it the company that collaborates with ACSnano?

还没想好叫啥子 2021-01-15

The review committee will send an email to the corresponding author.

May I ask how did you know that it was sent for review on the second day? Thank you.
