Metrics
“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. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.
Indexing & access
Access status: unknown. Where this comes from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic — confirm on the journal’s own site, especially regarding any article processing charge.
Scope
Frequently asked
Is Infrared and Laser Engineering a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Infrared and Laser Engineering. 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 Scopus, which is a positive signal.
Is Infrared and Laser Engineering indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Infrared and Laser Engineering appears in: Scopus. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is Infrared and Laser Engineering's impact?
Papers in Infrared and Laser Engineering are cited about 0.4 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 18. This is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric — and a citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
Is Infrared and Laser Engineering open access?
We hold no reliable open-access classification for Infrared and Laser Engineering. Check the journal's own site for its access model and any article processing charge.
