History

• The journal was launched in 2021 by Elsevier as a venue for chip and integrated circuit research from the international microelectronics community, with the first volume appearing in the same year该刊于 2021 年由爱思唯尔创办，定位为发表国际微电子群体芯片与集成电路研究成果的平台，首卷同年出版。
• It was conceived to provide a fully open access outlet for chip-level research that bridges device physics, circuit design and system application该刊定位为芯片级研究的完全开放获取出口，连接器件物理、电路设计与系统应用。
• The Journal Impact Factor was first reported in the Emerging Sources Citation Index and reached 7.1 in 2024 and 8.6 in 2025, placing the journal in the first quartile across three engineering and physics categories该刊的影响因子首见于（Emerging Sources Citation Index），2024 年为 7.1，2025 年达到 8.6，居三个工程与物理类别第一四分位。
• From its founding the journal operated as a gold open access title with a Creative Commons licence, and it has retained the quarterly publication model since launch自创刊起该刊即为金色开放获取期刊，采用知识共享许可，并一直沿用季刊出版模式。
• The publisher carries the journal on the ScienceDirect platform and the digital object identifier prefix of its articles is 10.1016, shared with other Elsevier titles出版方将该刊载于科学直通平台，其文章的数字对象唯一标识符前缀为（10.1016），与爱思唯尔其他期刊一致。

Editors

• The journal is led by an editor-in-chief supported by an international editorial board whose members are drawn from universities, semiconductor companies and research institutes across Asia, Europe and the Americas该刊由一位主编带领，配以由亚洲、欧洲与美洲多所大学、半导体企业与研究机构学者组成的国际编委会。
• The editorial board includes section editors responsible for subject areas such as analog circuits, radio-frequency chips, photonic chips and neuromorphic chips, reflecting the chip-level scope of the journal编委会设有领域编辑，分别负责模拟电路、射频芯片、光子芯片与神经形态芯片等方向，对应刊物的芯片级定位。
• Editorial handling follows the Elsevier editorial management system, with submissions assigned to handling editors based on subject expertise and competing interest declarations稿件处理依托爱思唯尔的编辑管理系统，依据学科专长与利益冲突声明分配责任编辑。
• Peer review is single-blind and the journal maintains the Elsevier standards on reviewer recruitment, conflict of interest management, data sharing and editorial independence同行评审采用单盲方式，该刊遵循爱思唯尔在审稿人遴选、利益冲突管理、数据共享与编辑独立性方面的标准。
• The masthead and board roster are published on the journal page at ScienceDirect and updated as new members join or existing members step down编委名单在科学直通期刊页公布，并随成员增减而更新。
