CRYSTALLOGRAPHY REPORTS

Crystallography Reports is a journal that publishes original articles short communications, and reviews on various aspects of crystallography: diffraction and scattering of X-rays, electrons, and neutrons, determination of crystal structure of inorganic and organic substances, including proteins and other biological substances; UV-VIS and IR spectroscopy; growth, imperfect structure and physical properties of crystals; thin films, liquid crystals, nanomaterials, partially disordered systems, and the methods of studies.PEER REVIEWCrystallography Reports is a peer reviewed journal. We use a single blind peer review format. Our team of reviewers includes over 20 reviewers, both internal and external (95%). The average period from submission to first decision in 2017 was 20 days, and that from first decision to acceptance was 30 days. The rejection rate for submitted manuscripts in 2017 was 20%. The final decision on the acceptance of an article for publication is made by the Editorial Board.Any invited reviewer who feels unqualified or unable to review the manuscript due to the conflict of interests should promptly notify the editors and decline the invitation. Reviewers should formulate their statements clearly in a sound and reasoned way so that authors can use reviewer’s arguments to improve the manuscript. Personal criticism of the authors must be avoided. Reviewers should indicate in a review (i) any relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors, (ii) anything that has been reported in previous publications and not given appropriate reference or citation, (iii) any substantial similarity or overlap with any other manuscript (published or unpublished) of which they have personal knowledge.

CRYSTALLOGRAPHY REPORTS期刊中文简介

《结晶学报告》是一本发表原创文章的期刊，内容包括：简短的通讯，综述结晶学的各个方面：X射线、电子和中子的衍射和散射，无机和有机物质（包括蛋白质和其他生物物质）的晶体结构测定，紫外-可见光谱和红外光谱。光学显微镜；晶体的生长、不完全结构和物理性质；薄膜、液晶、纳米材料、部分无序系统和研究方法。同行评议结晶学报告是同行评审的期刊。我们使用单盲同行评审格式。我们的评审团队包括20多名评审员，包括内部和外部评审员（95%）。2017年从提交到第一次决定的平均期限为20天，从第一次决定到接受的平均期限为30天。2017年提交稿件不合格率为20%。接受发表文章的最后决定由编辑委员会作出。受邀审稿人因利益冲突，认为审稿不合格或者不能审稿的，应当及时通知编辑，拒绝邀请。审稿人应以合理、合理的方式清楚地陈述自己的观点，以便作者可以利用审稿人的论点来改进手稿。必须避免对作者的个人批评。审稿人应在审稿中指出：（1）作者未引用的任何相关出版作品；（2）以前出版物中报道的任何内容，但未给出适当的参考或引用；（3）任何实质性相似或重叠与其他手稿(发表或未发表)的个人知识。
