Manuscript Submission

 

Manuscript deadline: Monday, June 9, 2009

 

Manuscript submission for EIPBN2009 is not yet open.

 

Please submit your manuscript in either Adobe PDF or Microsoft Word format. PDF is the preferred format. Looking for a free PDF writer? This is the one we use.

If any information has changed since submitting your abstract (authors, contacts, subject area) please make these changes on the paper you submit here, and enter the new information into the submission form. 

Note that there is no provision for accepting paper manuscripts. Any late manuscripts must be sent directly to the Journal of Vacuum Science and Technology where the authors will have to follow the JVST submission procedures. If accepted, late papers will  be published in a later version of the journal. 

 

Instructions for preparing JVST manuscripts


Papers will be reviewed according to criteria set by the JVST and must meet JVST standards for both technical content and written English. Proceedings papers will be accepted with the understanding that the authors intend to honor the normal page charges of the JVST.

The size of the conference necessitates that manuscripts considered for publication follow length guidelines. All manuscripts are refereed to the same standards as regular JVST submissions.

It is IMPORTANT that the submitted manuscript has the Program (Paper) Number entered in the top-right corner of the title page.

Length Constraints:

  1. Papers can contain up to 4000 words (4 journal pages) which corresponds to a total of 16 pages of double-spaced text, tables, figures, references, abstract, etc.

  2. Each figure and table should be on a separate page.

  3. Table and figure captions should be listed on a page, NOT under the table or figure.

  4. Multi-component figures may take up more than one page (of the 16 pages allowed) if each component cannot be reduced to 1/6 of a JVST page.

  5. The text should be DOUBLE-SPACED using a 12-pitch font (the font recommended by the editor-in-chief is "Times New Roman 12") and pages should have one inch margins on all sides.

Manuscripts exceeding these length requirements will be forwarded to reviewers with a notation that the manuscript must be shortened.

Authors may include their internet e-mail addresses along with all other footnotes in the following format: Electronic mail: smith@foo.bar.com

***WE WILL NEED AT LEAST 3 MATERIAL TERMS, IF APPLICABLE, FOR YOUR MANUSCRIPT. THIS IS NEEDED FOR THE JVST MATERIALS INDEX. THESE ARE TERMS INDICATING WHAT MATERIALS ARE DISCUSSED IN THE ARTICLE (MATERIAL REFERS TO CHEMICAL SUBSTANCE).

For any other details about manuscript preparation, please refer to the Information for Contributors in the JVST.

NOTE: Your FIGURES CAN APPEAR ONLINE IN COLOR FOR FREE. To take advantage of this you will need to send AIP the electronic file/s of your figures within 24 hours of receiving your Acceptance email. Again, you do not need to send anything until you receive notice the paper is accepted and has a 9 digit AIP number. A "Publisher's Announcements" email with more details will be sent to you.

PLEASE SUBMIT A PDF FILE OF THE PAPER TO THE PROCEEDEINGS EDITOR OR BRING THE ORIGINAL PAPER WITH YOU TO THE CONFERENCE.

 

For a complete description of publication standards, please refer to the AVS-JVST web page.

Thank you very much for submitting a paper to EIPBN.
