“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).
Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology is Q2 in 3 of its 4 Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Physics and Astronomy (miscellaneous): Q2, #109 of 320), with SJR 0.508 (Scimago) and an h-index of 97 (OpenAlex). Listed in DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed.

Scope
Frequently asked
Is Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology appears in: DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology?
Papers in Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology are cited about 4.1 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 97. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology is Q2 in 3 of its 4 subject categories and Q3 in the other 1. By category: Physics and Astronomy (miscellaneous): Q2, #109 of 320; Materials Science (miscellaneous): Q2, #307 of 700; Electrical and Electronic Engineering: Q2, #313 of 811; Nanoscience and Nanotechnology: Q3, #40 of 73. Its best category quartile is Q2. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology is cited about 4.1 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 97.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology. The open equivalent is its best Scimago quartile, Q2 in Physics and Astronomy (miscellaneous) and 2 other categories, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology open access?
Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
Is Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology free to publish in?
Free to publish — DOAJ lists no article processing charge (APC). So there is no fee for authors to publish in Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology. Fee policies change — confirm on the journal's own site before relying on it.
How long does Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology take to publish a paper?
Submission to publication for Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology takes about ~23 wk — DOAJ self-reported. Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology.
