Aims

Avestia introduces the publication of the International Journal of Theoretical and Applied Nanotechnology (IJTAN).

This journal is based on the continuous model in English and adopts the open-access model, meaning that all interested readers have free access to the journal's homepage and articles without the need for subscription. Users are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of the articles in this journal without asking prior permission from the publisher or the author. This is in accordance with the BOAI definition of open access.

All published papers of IJTAN will be submitted to Google Scholar, CAS, Genamics JournalSeek, Index Copernicus International, Mendeley.

IJTAN is a high-quality peer-reviewed journal, in which every article will be peer-reviewed by several experts in the relevant field and assigned unique DOIs by CrossRef. Upon acceptance, articles will be published in the latest open volume. One continuous volume per year is published.
