I will need about 2 weeks to fix it and reply back. It is normal to receive it within 1 week. Good luck.

After successful submission, a URL will be sent to the corresponding author's email, which can track the current review progress.

奥里干! 2023-02-26

May I ask how you can check the progress of the reviewers?

撒盐少女 2023-02-25

There has been no news since October 20th, 2022, when it was under review until now. The tracking information shows that two reviewers have accepted the invitation, but it has been four months and there is still no feedback. I'm so anxious! Ahhh!

撒盐少女 2023-02-25

My paper has been under review for four months already. Last week, I sent a reminder email to the editor, but there has been no response. Seeing your message, I'm afraid it might be rejected.

May I ask which three files you have uploaded? manuscript, manuscript (revised clean and final), revised manuscript file.

孤独的风中一匹狼 2023-02-07

The first article was submitted to SCT in December 21 and was rejected. It was then submitted to Acta Electrochimica after 2 months and was accepted.

The second article was submitted to SCT in April 22 and the editors provided 60 questions for me to address. I sincerely impressed the editors and after 1.5 months, it was accepted.

The third article was submitted to SCT in December 22 and went through 2 months of review, during which there were approximately 45 questions. It was accepted after 2 months.

Overall, the review speed of this journal is quite fast, and they usually provide feedback within 1 month.

I would like to thank the editors S.M.A. Shibli and Claus G. Rebholz and wish all researchers good luck in publishing their articles. Keep up the good work!

2023.23 - Acceptance

Submitted on 19 Oct
With editor on 20 Oct
Under review on 21 Oct
Rejected on 3 Dec

During the "under review" process, there were several changes. It was difficult to find reviewers, and only one agreed to review the article. However, it seemed like the reviewer did not carefully read the article, as the questions raised were already addressed in the text. Overall, the editor was responsible and actively sought reviewers, and the process was quick.

Received on 2022.12.22, but still haven't received the proofs. This is really frustrating.

The journal with a very fast review speed
Submitted on 25th October
Under review on 28th October
Major revision on 16th November
Revision submitted on 3rd December
Accepted on 17th December
Now it has been ten days since acceptance, but there is still no publication information. It's quite puzzling.

叶密立 2022-12-05

Joerg Patscheider has not edited the manuscript for three weeks, which is really slow and not proactive.

叶密立 2022-12-01

In the repair email, you will see the editor's name.

我爱吃榴莲 2022-12-01

How do you know which editor it is after submitting it?

叶密立 2022-12-01

What do "二次返修Manuscript", "Manuscript (Revised Clean and Final)", and "Revised manuscript file" respectively mean?

This guy is slow, it took him two and a half months to retake the exam.

Translate the following text into English: "On 10.27, it was submitted, and on 11.11, it showed that the external review was completed. However, no status link was sent for review. What is this situation? Is it a prelude to rejection?"

南柯一梦。 2022-11-12

From submission to rejection, it took nearly 4 months, wasting 4 months of time for nothing. I will not submit to this journal again in the future.

叶密立 2022-11-09

It has been revised for 10 days now, and the status has always been "with editor." Does this mean something unfortunate is going to happen?

我爱吃榴莲 2022-11-05

Does anyone know if it is effective to make changes and start over?

10.18 with editor
10.22 under review
11.3 rejected
However, the response from the editor suggests that it can be resubmitted after making modifications and addressing the reviewers' comments one by one.
Although the opinions of the three reviewers do not seem very negative, it should be possible to make major revisions. However, the editor rejected it directly and the similarity index reached 36%.
