What is the impact factor of Nanoscale?
The impact factor is a figure Clarivate licenses, so it is not shown here. Its open counterpart is the 2-year mean citedness OpenAlex holds for Nanoscale: 5.80, the mean number of citations received by the journal's papers of the last two years. That ranks Nanoscale #1,327 of 18,122 journals, in the top 7%. The two figures follow the same idea on different records, so they are not equal.
What is the h-index of Nanoscale?
OpenAlex gives Nanoscale an h-index of 331: 331 of its papers have each been cited at least 331 times. That ranks #369 of 18,122 journals.
How much does Nanoscale publish?
OpenAlex records 33,961 works in Nanoscale from 1890 to 2026, cited 1,398,376 times in all, 41.2 citations per work. By total citations it ranks #224 of 18,122 journals.

How these figures are made
Every figure is from OpenAlex's record of this journal, snapshot of 2026-10-14. The 2-year mean citedness is not Clarivate's impact factor: it counts the citations OpenAlex has recorded, so it differs from the licensed figure. Ranks are among the 18,122 journals with at least 1,000 works in OpenAlex and a record in 2025 or later that pass checks for record errors. Method and limits.
