4. Manuscript Preparation
4.1 Title : Font and size: Times New Roman 12 point, bold, upper and lower case letters, single line space; alignment: Centred.
4.2 Authors’ Details : Author’s name(s) should be 11-point Times New Roman, upper and lower case letters, centered under the title. One line space should separate the title from the author listing(s).
Full address information of every author, including the e-mail id of the corresponding author should be provided clearly in the manuscript. All authors’ affiliation information should be 11-point Times New Roman, in italics, upper and lower case letters, centered under the name.
4.3 General Format : Paper format: standard A4 size (21 cm x 29.7 cm); All margins should be 2.5 cm; Text (except title and authors’ details) font and size: Times New Roman 12 point, double line space; alignment: Justified. Each page and line of the manuscript should be numbered.
4.4 General Presentation : The content should include following major sections: ‘Abstract’, ‘Introduction’, ‘Experimental’, ‘Results and Discussions’, ‘Conclusions’ and ‘Acknowledgements’ (if any). References, tables and figures are to be provided separately after the text.
4.4.1 An abstract for a paper / review article is to be provided at the beginning which should be brief indicating scope of the work and principal findings. It should not normally exceed 200 words, and should be followed by 4 to 5 keywords.
4.4.2 Introduction , including a review of the literature, should not exceed what is necessary to indicate the reason for taking up the work and the essential background. 4.4.3 Description of techniques and equipment should generally be included in short in the Experimental section of the paper.
4.4.4. If possible, Results and Discussion may not be intermingled; the discussion should be restricted to logical interpretation as a basis for conclusions supported by the results. Information density must be high, and verbose and roundabout expressions should be avoided.
4.4.5. References : The author is responsible for accuracy. Literature reference should be in separate sheets at the end of the paper in the order in which they appear and are numbered in the text. The reference numbers should be cited as superscripts in the text.
Each reference should give the following information in the sequence set out below:
(i) Papers :
A. Gedanken, Y. Koltypin, N. Perkas, M. Besson, L. Vradman, M. Herskowitz and M. V. Landau, Trans. Indian Ceram. Soc. , 63 , 137-144 (2004).
Y. Tian and T. Tatsuma, Chem. Commun. , 1810-1811 (2004); DOI : 10.1039/B405061D.
(ii) Conference Proceedings :
L. A. Chick, J. L. Bates, L. R. Pederson and H. E. Kissinger, “Synthesis of Air Sinterable Lanthanum Chromite Powders,” pp.170-79 in: Proc. 1st. Int. Symp. Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, Ed. S.C. Singhal, The Electrochemical Society, Pennington, NJ, USA (1989).
(iii) Books :
E. B. Shand, Glass Engineering Handbook, 2nd edition, pp. 38-42, McGraw-Hill Book Co, New York, USA (1958).
W. D. Kingery, “The Thermal Conductivity of Ceramic Dielectrics,” pp. 182-235 in: Progress in Ceramic Science , Vol. 2, Ed. J. K. Burke, Pergamon Press, London, UK (1962).
(iv) Website references are also acceptable.
4.5. Tables should be numbered with Roman numerals in the order in which they are referred to in the text. Each table should be accompanied by a title which makes the information intelligible without reference to the text.
The number of columns should be kept to a minimum. Long column headings should be avoided by the use of explanatory footnote indicated in the table by superscript letters. Presentation of same data in tabular and graphical form is not desirable; in all such cases the graphical form is preferred.
4.6. Mathematical formulae should be written carefully in the exact form in which they are to be printed. Care should be taken to distinguish between capital and small letters and subscripts and superscripts. A zero should be used before decimals (0.231, not .231). Fractional exponents should be used instead of root sign.
4.7. Figures
Illustrations must be submitted as electronic files at the appropriate resolution and the size intended for publication. Colour images should be submitted in full colour. For file format, submit line artwork (vector graphics) as Encapsulated PostScript (EPS), and halftones or photographic images as Tagged Image File Format (TIFF). Minimum acceptable resolution at final, published size is 300 dpi (dots per inch) for colour figures, 500 dpi for grayscale images, and 300+ dpi for line art. These resolutions are for when the figure (excluding white space on the edges) is sized to a column width of approximately 8.5 cm (3.3 inch) or in other words, the figure must be a minimum of 1000 pixels wide. If the graphic is to be published in a two-column format then the 300 dpi minimum should apply to a figure width of approximately 18 cm (7 inch) or in other words, the figure must be a minimum of 2100 pixels wide.
Normally, figures and micrographs are submitted and published in black and white. Figures submitted in colour will appear in colour when published online. However, if colour print reproduction is desired, the author must indicate this and commit to paying costs of printing in colour, which are $60 per figure with colour.
Each figure submitted must be clearly identified with a figure number and caption. Captions of all figures should be grouped in a single list after the Reference section of the manuscript. The captions should be formatted double-spaced. Figures with multiple parts/images (each part of the figure should be distinguished with labels a, b, c, d, etc, but with one caption) should be assembled into one piece and be submitted as one file. All labeled parts require an explanation in the caption.
Micrographs will usually be sized to approximately 8.5 cm (3.3 inch) in width. Magnification indicators, e.g. ''1000X”, must not be used, because micrographs are typically reduced before publication. The machine-generated information must be removed from the micrographs and replaced with professional scale markers that are easy to read. If there is other critical information in the machine-generated legend, it should be added to the caption.
Line drawings should be drawn boldly to ensure clear reproduction. Lettering within each figure should be sized with a regard to its appearance when the drawing is reduced for publication.
If a figure has been taken directly from another published source, the author must obtain written permission to reprint from the original publisher. This permission should be forwarded to the Journal Administrator when the article is being submitted for publication, and the source of the figure should be cited as a reference in the figure caption. Alternatively, if the author has modified the original figure in any significant way, no permission to reprint is required. However, the reference to the published paper containing the source figure should be cited at the end of the figure caption.
