10、 manuscript begins with a title, names of all authors and their affiliations, and an abstract, followed by the body of the paper, tables and figures, if any, included, and the reference section. Consecutively number all tables (I, II, III, etc.) and figures (1, 2, 3, etc.), including those in an App
11、endix. Figures, with figure captions, may be embedded within the manuscript to assist the reviewers. Number all pages consecutively, beginning with 1.Manuscript submissionAll files will be submitted through the online system: http:/apl.peerx-press.org/. Each version of the manuscript (the original a
12、nd subsequent revisions) should be submitted with its own complete set of files: a cover letter (indicating the title, authors, and contact information), a complete article file, and separate figure files (see Sec. IXFIGURES). When uploading a revised manuscript, also include a response/rebuttal let
13、ter (indicating the changes made to address the Editors and Reviewers comments). MANUSCRIPT LENGTHManuscripts should not exceed 3500 words.TeX usersAuthors are advised to use the REVTeX 4.1 file. If the double-column version of the manuscript obtained using the reprint option fits on four pages, the
14、 length is acceptable.Word usersPlease note that the abstract, title, author list, references, and acknowledgments are all excluded from the 3500-word limit. Figures, tables, and equations, however, are included and must be accounted for by calculating a word count equivalent to the space they occup
15、y.Highlight the manuscript text, excluding abstract, author list, acknowledgements and references, and note the word count at the bottom of the screen. Add to that the word-count-equivalents for figures, tables and equations as follows: Figures: 200 words for an average figure. Tables: 13 words per
16、line, plus 26 words. Equations: 13 words per line.If the total number of words (text + figures + tables + equations) is 3500 or less, the length is acceptable.TITLEThe title of a paper should be as concise as possible but informative enough to facilitate information retrieval. Acronyms are not allow
17、ed in the title; they must be spelled out (exception to this rule is DNA). Chemical compounds are allowed in the title.AUTHORS NAMES AND ADDRESSES Authors names should preferably be written in a standard form for all publications to facilitate indexing and to avoid ambiguities. Include the names and
18、 postal addresses of all institutions, followed by city, state, zip code, and USA if in the United States or by postal code, city, and country if not in the U.S. Please provide the complete address for each author. See the byline of this sample article for examples.Authors with Chinese, Japanese, or
19、 Korean names may choose to have their names published in their own language alongside the English versions of their names in the author list of their publications. For Chinese, authors may use either Simplified or Traditional characters. Chinese, Japanese, or Korean characters must be included with
20、in the author list of the manuscript when submitting or resubmitting. The manuscript must be prepared using Microsoft Word or using the CJK LaTeX package. Specific guidelines are given here. FOOTNOTESFootnotes are generally unacceptable in Applied Physics Letters, with the exception of footnotes to
21、the title and the authors names. Footnotes to the title should be set as a Note above the byline footnotes. All other footnotes should be converted to text or should be included in the reference section. Use a), b), c), etc., for footnotes to authors. The following list shows some examples:Note: Con

HEADINGSHeadings are not permitted in Applied Physics Letters.EQUATIONSEquations need to be editable so we recommend that you create them with the bu
24、ilt-in Microsoft Equation Editor included with your version of Word. If you wish to use Mathtype, check for compatibility at o Users of the Windows version of Word: Please embed all fonts.o Users of Macintosh Word: Please save all files in DOCX format, as the use of DOC is not supported. Additionall
25、y, because font embedding is not possible, Mac Word users should limit their font selection to those available from the basic installation.Equations should be punctuated and aligned to bring out their structure and should be numbered on the right. Mathematical operation signs indicating continuity o
26、f the expression should be placed at the left of the second and succeeding lines. Use () rather than a centered dot, except for scalar products of vectors. A solidus (/) instead of built-up fractions is preferred in running text and in display wherever clarity would not be jeopardized. Use “exp” for
27、 complicated exponents. Some examples follow: , (1) (2), (3) . (4)Equation numbering Equations are numbered consecutively through the entire paper as simply (1), (2), (3). In appendixes, the numbering starts over as (A1), (A2), (A3). If there is more than one appendix, use (A1), (A2), etc. for equat
28、ions in Appendix A; (B1), (B2), etc., for equations in Appendix B. When a numbered equation has more than one part and that (those) part(s) consecutively follow, then they are indicated as follows: (21)(22a)(22b)(22c)If, however, they do not follow consecutively, primes are used:(21)(22a)(22b)(21)(2
29、1)ACRONYMS AND NOTATIONAcronyms, except for the most common (such as 2D, rms, or ac) must be spelled out when they first appear both in the abstract and again in the text. Spell out machine names, except for those not considered acronyms (such as ITER or DIII-D). Try to avoid the excessive use of ac
30、ronyms or specialized jargon. Notation must be legible, clear, compact, and consistent with standard usage. Choose commonly used symbols from your discipline. All unusual symbols whose identity may not be obvious must be identified the first time they appear, and at all subsequent times when confusi
31、on might arise. Superscripts are normally set directly over subscripts; authors should note where readability or the meaning requires a special order. FIGURES Cite figures in text in numerical order of publication-ready illustrations. It is vital that you prepare your illustrations so that they are
32、legible when reduced. Figures 16 show examples of various types of production-ready illustrations: color, line art, halftone, and combination (line art and halftone). Table I gives (a) general guidelines for preparing your illustrations and (b) guidelines for the preparation of electronic files. FIG
33、. 1. This figure will appear in color in print and online. Figures should be created at 600 dpi and submitted at 600 dpi for the best presentation. Choose CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) for any figure that will appear in color in the print version. FIG. 2. This figure will appear in color only
34、in the online version only, not in the printed version. Figures should be created at 600 dpi and submitted at 600 dpi for the best presentation. Choose RGB (red, green, blue) for any figure that will appear in color only online. FIG. 3. This is a good example of information that was presented clearl
35、y. When this figure appeared in the printed journal it was in black and white print, but the reader was able to discern the “red” triangles, the closed “green” circles, and the open “black” circles. A description as well as the color is needed. If the caption had simply discussed “the red and green
36、symbols,” the reader of the print version would not understand because he/she would be seeing the figure without the color. FIG. 4. This is an example of line art. Figures should be created at 600 dpi and submitted at 600 dpi for the best presentation. Save line art as black/white bitmap, not graysc
37、ale. . FIG. 5. This is an example of a halftone. Figures should be created at 265 dpi and submitted at 265 dpi for the best presentation.FIG. 6. This is an example of a combination figure (line art and halftone). Figures should be created at 600 dpi and submitted at 600 dpi for the best presentation
38、.TABLE I. This table provides instructions on how to prepare figures. (a) General guidelines for preparing illustrations Number figures in the order in which they appear in the text. Label all figure parts with (a), (b), etc. Each figure file should contain all parts of the figure. For example, if F
39、ig.1 contains three parts (a), (b), and (c), then all parts should be combined in a single file for Fig. 1. Avoid any large disparity in size of lettering and labels used within one illustration. Prepare illustrations in the final published size, not oversized. The maximum published width for a one-
40、column illustration is 8.5 cm (3-3/8 in.). The maximum width for a two-column figure is 17 cm (7.0 in.). In cases where reduction is required, avoid small open symbols that tend to fill in and avoid small lettering; ensure that, in the final published illustration, there is a minimum of 8-point type
41、 size (2.8 mm high; 1/8 in. high) for lettering and 0.5-point width for lines. Ensure that lettering and lines are dark enough, and thick enough, to reproduce clearly. Remember that fine lines tend to disappear upon reduction. It is preferred that authors embed figures and captions in the manuscript
42、 file. Embed the figures in the approximate position and size you think is appropriate. In addition, separate figure files must be provided (see below for accepted file formats) along with the manuscript.(b) Guidelines for preparation of electronic graphics files Acceptable formats for figures: Port
43、able Document Files (PDF), Encapsulated PostScript Files (EPS), PostScript, or Tagged Image File (TIF), and JPEG (.jpg) Microsoft Word files are not acceptable. More detailed information is given about figure preparation on the website in the Preparing Graphics instructions. Settings: Set the graphi
44、c for 600 dpi resolution for line art, 265 dpi for halftones, and 600 dpi for combinations (line art + halftone). Save line art as black/white bitmap, not grayscale. Save halftones and combinations as grayscale, not black/white bitmap. Click the link to “Publication Charges & Open Access Fees” on th
45、e About tab for publication charge information. Submit color files at 300 dpi in one of the accepted file formats: PDF, EPS, PS, or TIF. No other type of color illustration is acceptable. When selecting a file mode, for print choose CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) and for color online choose RGB
46、 (red, green, blue). PDF files should be vector files. In the PDF illustration, resolution of any shaded or photographic images must be 600 pixels per inch (PPI). Within the PDF illustration, resolution of line art with no shading should be 1200 pixels per inch (PPI). All fonts must be embedded in the PDF. Select High Quality Print when creating a PDF through the applications print command. If usable color graphics files are received in time for the production process, authors will see color versions of those illustrat
