Article Processing Charges

APC rate

The journal Advanced Devices & Instrumentation is an Open Access journal supported by article processing charges (APCs). There are no submission charges.

From 2020 through 2024, all APCs will be covered by Beijing Institute of Aerospace Control Devices (BIACD). Authors whose work is accepted for publication in Advanced Devices & Instrumentation before January 1, 2025 will therefore not be responsible for paying APCs.

Waivers

Beginning in 2025, the Science Partner Journals (SPJ) Program will offer full APC waivers to authors in the developing world (Hinari A & B countries). Additionally, full or partial waivers may be available to those experiencing financial hardships. Waivers may be requested at any point in the editorial workflow (pre-submission to acceptance) but are not granted until acceptance. Contact the SPJ program business office to inquire about waivers.
