Information For Authors

The Journal of Microelectronics and Electronic Packaging is published quarterly. Authors must submit manuscripts of original technical content to the Journal's Editor-in-Chief in an electronic format, preferably Microsoft Word. The Journal publishes original manuscripts relating to the theory, design, and performance of microelectronics and electronic packaging. The Editor will consider papers that are consistent with the technical focus of the Society -- "Everything in electronics between the chip and the system" which addresses the 4-Tier technical model: Microelectronics Devices and Back-end Wafer Fab; 1st Level Packaging (Single and Multi-chip); 2nd Level Packaging (Board Level); and System Level Packaging (Box or Product Level). Tutorial and review papers on these subjects are also published. Periodically, special issues will present collections of technical papers addressing important emerging technologies.

Regular Papers

The limit on the number of pages that a paper can have in the Journal is a function of the paper subject, content, etc. The actual maximum page-count is at the discretion of the Editor-in-Chief and is something that we work out in conjunction with the author(s) and the Editorial Board. Typically, papers are twenty to twenty-five pages long.

To estimate the length of a manuscript, assume about 850 to 900 words per published page. Each figure or table will generally occupy one fourth to one third of a page. The abstract is limited to 250 words.

For the review process, the Editorial Board, consisting of experts working in related fields, will evaluate the technical content of the manuscripts.

Other Submissions: correspondence, abstracts, special articles, industry news, etc.

Other technical contributions of 2,000 words or less will also be published in the Journal pending approval by the Editorial Board. Contributions may be composed of not less than two columns of text including figures.

Procedure for Submission:

Provide only original research, development, engineering and manufacturing manuscripts, short notes, and comprehensive state of the art reviews. Papers not submitted to, accepted for, or fully published elsewhere will be considered for publication. Manuscripts must be submitted electronically as Microsoft Word files and should be submitted via email to Brian Schieman, IMAPS, bschieman@imaps.org. A web-based document management system will be available in the future!
