Microelectronic Engineering has an h-index of 122 and a 2-year mean of 3.43 citations per paper (OpenAlex). Its Scopus CiteScore is 7.4, quartile Q1. On 2-year citations it ranks #123 of 425 Scopus journals in Condensed Matter Physics.
Microelectronic Engineering published 95 papers in 2025; its busiest recent year was 2017 with 371. 2026* is the year so far.
h-index, i10-index and 2-year mean citedness are open, licence-clear metrics from OpenAlex — not a proprietary impact factor. The subject rank counts only journals that OpenAlex has a figure for; it is not a Scopus or Clarivate ranking. Updated 2026-10-14.
In its latest 98 research articles (2025–2026), authors are most often from China (38.6%), India (10.9%) and France (5.1%).
Countries are counted fractionally, so a paper by authors from two countries counts half to each.
Scopus status: Active. 9 retracted papers are recorded (0.6 per 1,000 papers). The Problematic Paper Screener flags none of its papers. These are indicators to check, not findings against the journal.
Retractions from OpenAlex; flags from the Problematic Paper Screener (Cabanac, Labbé & Magazinov, CC BY), 2026-09-21 export. A flag marks a paper for a closer look; it is not a finding against the journal.
Index data is curated from public sources (Scopus, Web of Science, ABDC, FT50, UT Dallas, DOAJ). CiteScore and quartiles reflect the latest available Scopus release. Always verify a journal's current status on its official source before submitting.
