It has already been put On Hold.

uuopt 2023-08-06

The journal is in an "on hold" status, and it is not recommended to submit manuscripts.

Additional explanation: The statement is not precise. It means that the OPTIK journal will not receive the Impact Factor for the year 2023 starting from the year 2024.

The reasons for the suppression are still unclear, but there will no longer be IF next year. It may be a temporary suppression, and it is expected to resume later. The journal, which is currently not indexed in the Web of Science, is likely to remain unindexed.

According to reliable sources, it has been confirmed that IF will be suppressed in 2024. The reason for the suppression is unclear, so please be cautious when submitting contributions!

Are you still going to change even if you are going to be kicked?

Possibly due to the relevance of the research direction, both the editing and reviewing efficiency of this submission were high. The reviewing process was fast, and the decision after revisions was made quickly. The paper was directly accepted within a week after the first round of revisions. I hope the journal continues to improve.

The reviewer raised several questions that were not difficult to address, but they made me reconsider. Instead of accepting the reconsideration, I made revisions and resubmitted. Is there any hope of it being further reviewed?

This journal is showing a trend of rising, with the impact factor continuously increasing. It may even surpass 4 next year. Judging from the data from the Web of Science, the number of papers accepted this year is only half of the same period in previous years, making it increasingly difficult to submit manuscripts. The acceptance rate has been decreasing year by year.

I have been applying for a year and got rejected. The process is extremely slow, so be cautious before applying.

The latest Impact Factor (IF) published in June 2023 is 3.1, an increase of 9.2% compared to last year. It ranks 31st among 118 optical journals and is categorized as a JCR 2 journal. Other indicators include a self-citation rate of 12.90% and a publication volume of 1513 articles in 2022. The estimated publication volume for 2023 is between 600-800 articles, and it is projected that the IF will exceed 4 in 2024. All indicators show that the journal is on an upward trajectory. It is recommended to submit contributions and invest in it!

Directly accepted upon submission, it was processed very quickly, maybe because I used some niche materials. However, my subsequent submissions were rejected, so I suggest trying a different journal.

My mentality exploded. I submitted the case earlier than you, but the first instance judgment hasn't come back yet.

How long after everyone is available online will we receive the proof?

emerge123 2023-04-30

sb journal, everyone be cautious before submitting. I submitted and it took two months for the review process. They asked me to transfer my submission, I have never seen such a stupid journal.

Forward: If the article marked as "under review" or "decision pending" has not been processed or if email responses have not been received for a long time, please contact: ijleo@elsevier.com.

If a special issue or special edition was selected in the early stages, there may be delays as Elsevier conducts internal reviews of special issues.

tpppp 2023-04-24

I give up. It has been four months since the requirement was made, and I have sent three emails without receiving any response. Please do not submit to this journal.

May I ask if you have any updates? I have been in the "Required Reviews Complete" status for over half a month. Can I remind them? I'm afraid to do so.

Hey guys, how do you write an Impact Statement? Is there a template available?

我接工地 2023-04-09

SB Journal, the review process is extremely slow. I had to remind them twice, and then they randomly found a reviewer (I don't even know where they found them from). They rejected my submission within a week, and the comments were very perfunctory. If they don't want to review it properly, then why bother accepting it in the first place? Moreover, they took six months to find reviewers. I am truly disappointed. They even recommended me to submit to other crappy journals. What a joke! I suggest not submitting to this journal. They are extremely irresponsible.

Ran极 2023-04-05

May I ask how things turned out in the end, boss? It's been 10 days for me and it's still showing "Required Reviews Completed." I'm really scared.

Ran极 2023-04-05

Already submitted for 3 months. Submitted on 1.5, under review status changed 3 times during the period, on 3.26 the status changed to Required Reviews Completed and has remained the same until now. Does this mean it's not looking good... I'm really worried. Isn't it usually expected to receive reviewer comments within a week after Required Reviews Completed? How long did everyone else have to wait to receive reviewer comments after that stage?

Ran极 2023-04-05

Already submitted for 3 months. On 1.5 submitted, during the period of 1.31 under review, the timeline changed 3 times, and on 3.26 the status changed to Required Reviews Completed and it has remained like that until now. Does it mean it's not going well... I'm really worried. Wasn't it said that usually there would be review comments within a week?

How are you doing now?

提莫队长正在待命 2023-03-06

Brother, how long has your "under review" status been going on? I submitted mine in July last year, and it has been under review ever since. The update date is still stuck in November last year, and there has been no change. I've sent two reminder emails but haven't received a reply. A year-long cycle is too long, isn't it?

Suinig 2023-03-01

The speed is quite fast. A reply will be sent within one month after submission, and if a major revision is made and resubmitted, it will be directly accepted.
