Congratulations and thank you for publishing with ECS. As an author you can be proud that your work will be included in the ECS Digital Library, standing alongside such noted authors and ECS members, as John Goodenough, Richard Smalley, Bruce Deal, Andy Grove, and Isamu Akasaki.
As a nonprofit society publisher, ECS is committed to promoting and disseminating research to the largest audience possible through our
Free the Science initiative. Since launching
Free the Science in 2014, over 35% of our journal articles have been published as open access and over 90% of the fees for publishing this content was paid directly by ECS—not authors!
That’s all thanks to ECS’s commitment to open science. Yes, we have made huge strides, covering over $2.1 million in article publishing charges (APCs) for our community, but we cannot do this alone. With your help we can provide even more support for open access and open science.
We kindly ask that you consider helping us offset our publishing costs for your article. Payment is not a prerequisite for publication or an obligation.
Free to publish. Free to read.
Free the Science.
