What historical factors have contributed to the success of the Journal of Physical Chemistry C?
As I mentioned earlier, the Journal of Physical Chemistry C was split from Journal of Physical Chemistry A and B. The Journal of Physical Chemistry has a long history, publishing its first issue in 1896, and finally growing so much that it needed to be reorganized into two separate parts in 1997. Throughout the journal’s history, it has continued to evolve as the field of physical chemistry progressed, and the journal has become well known in the process for keeping up with the changing field. I think that the history and established reputation of excellence of Journal of Physical Chemistry A and B certainly has helped Journal of Physical Chemistry C achieve success so quickly. In addition, the rigorous and efficient editorial and publication processes established with the Journal of Physical Chemistry A and B forged the way for part C to achieve rapid success. Have there been specific developments in the fields served by the Journal of Physical Chemistry C that may have contributed?
