History

• Nano Select was launched in 2020 by Wiley-VCH, the Weinheim-based materials science publisher within John Wiley & Sons, and volume 1 appeared in that year.《纳米精选》由（Wiley-VCH）于 2020 年创办，该社是（John Wiley & Sons）旗下位于魏因海姆的材料科学出版机构，当年即出版第 1 卷。^[1]
• It has been online only since launch, with the electronic ISSN 2688-4011, and no print edition is produced.该刊自创刊起即为纯在线出版，仅有电子刊号 2688-4011，不出版印刷版。
• The journal has been fully open access from the outset, publishing under a CC BY licence and levying an article processing charge with a waiver policy.期刊自创刊起即完全开放获取，文章以（CC BY）许可发布，收取文章处理费并设有减免政策。
• It now sits in Wiley's Forward Series, a programme that offers a streamlined submission and production route with additional integrity checks.该刊现属（Wiley）的（Forward Series）计划，该计划提供更简化的投稿与出版流程并加强诚信审查。
• Issues appear monthly, and the journal is indexed in the Emerging Sources Citation Index, DOAJ, CAS and ProQuest.期刊按月出版，并被（Emerging Sources Citation Index）、（DOAJ）、（CAS）与（ProQuest）收录。
• In Journal Citation Reports it is placed in Q2 in both Materials Science, Multidisciplinary and Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, with a 2025 Journal Impact Factor of 4.9 against 3.5 in 2024.在（Journal Citation Reports）中，该刊在材料科学综合与纳米科学与纳米技术两个类别均列（Q2），2025 年影响因子为 4.9，2024 年为 3.5。

Editors

• The Editor-in-Chief is Lisa Smith, an in-house editor at Wiley-VCH with a PhD in nanoparticle synthesis from the University of Melbourne, who is also a Deputy Editor of Small.现任主编为（Lisa Smith），她是（Wiley-VCH）的内部编辑，在墨尔本大学获得纳米颗粒合成方向博士学位，同时担任（Small）的副主编。
• She leads 22 external associate editors who handle manuscripts from submission through peer review to production.她领导 22 位外部副编辑，后者负责稿件从投稿、同行评审到出版的全流程。
• The associate editors are based in 12 countries, among them China, the United States, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, India, Turkey, South Korea, Mexico and Saudi Arabia.这些副编辑分布在 12 个国家，包括中国、美国、德国、法国、意大利、荷兰、比利时、印度、土耳其、韩国、墨西哥与沙特阿拉伯。
• Each manuscript is handled by the in-house editor and a field-matched associate editor, and the journal operates single anonymised peer review.每篇稿件由内部主编与一位领域对口的副编辑处理，期刊实行单盲评审。
• The acceptance rate is about 46 per cent, and the median time from submission to first decision is 39 days.稿件录用率约为 46%，从投稿到首次决定的中位时间为 39 天。
• Editorial policy stresses scientific soundness rather than novelty, so specialised studies and negative results are considered when the motivation is clear.编辑方针强调科学可靠性而非新颖性，因此只要动机清晰，专门性研究与阴性结果同样会被考虑。
