“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).
Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics is Q4 in all 5 of its Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics: Q4, #206 of 229), with SJR 0.167 (Scimago) and an h-index of 13 (OpenAlex). Listed in DOAJ, Scopus.

Scope
Frequently asked
Is Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics. 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, which is a positive signal.
Is Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics appears in: DOAJ, Scopus. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics?
Papers in Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics are cited about 0.6 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q4, with an h-index of 13. 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 Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics is Q4 in all 5 of its subject categories. By category: Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics: Q4, #206 of 229; Electronic, Optical and Magnetic Materials: Q4, #259 of 279; Information Systems: Q4, #373 of 434; Mechanical Engineering: Q4, #591 of 696; Computer Science Applications: Q4, #765 of 875. 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; Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics is cited about 0.6 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 13.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics?
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 Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q4, 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 Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics 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 Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics free to publish in?
Free to publish — DOAJ lists no article processing charge (APC). So there is no fee for authors to publish in Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics. Fee policies change — confirm on the journal's own site before relying on it.
How long does Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics take to publish a paper?
Submission to publication for Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics takes about ~10 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 Scientific and technical journal of information technologies mechanics and optics.
