The 5th International Characterization Symposium (ISC´25) is organized by academics and researchers belonging to different scientific areas of the Afyon Kocatepe University (AKU,Türkiye), Harbin Institute of Technology (China), Hangzhou Dianzi University (China), University of Nevşehir Hacı Bektaş (Türkiye), University of Erciyes (Türkiye), Giresun University (Türkiye), NED University of Engineering and Technology (The Materials Engineering Department), Sabancı University Nanotechnology Research and Application Center (SUNUM)
Aims and Scope
The International Characterization Symposium aims to serve as a global platform for researchers, academicians, industry professionals, and policymakers to exchange knowledge, foster collaboration, and discuss advancements in material and system characterization techniques. The symposium focuses on promoting interdisciplinary research by bridging gaps between various scientific disciplines, including physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering. Its key objectives include advancing the development of innovative characterization methods, enhancing the understanding of material properties at the nanoscale and macroscale, and encouraging the application of these methods in addressing global challenges such as energy sustainability, environmental conservation, and technological innovation. Additionally, the symposium aspires to create opportunities for young scientists and researchers to network with leading experts, fostering an environment conducive to the development of future pioneers in the field. Through keynote speeches, technical sessions, and workshops, the event aims to set the stage for groundbreaking discussions that drive the field forward and contribute to the collective progress of science and technology.
Yours sincerely,
PUBLICATION ETHICS AND MALPRACTICE STATEMENT
The International Symposium on Characterization (ISC) is committed to ensuring the highest standards of publication ethics. All parties involved in the act of publishing (authors, editors, and reviewers) must agree upon standards of expected ethical behavior.
Duties of Authors
- Originality and Plagiarism: Authors must ensure that their work is entirely original. If authors have used the work and/or words of others, this must be appropriately cited. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable.
- Data Access and Retention: Authors may be asked to provide the raw data in connection with a paper for editorial review.
- Multiple or Concurrent Publication: Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal or conference concurrently is considered unethical and unacceptable.
Duties of Reviewers
- Confidentiality: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents.
- Standards of Objectivity: Reviews should be conducted objectively. Personal criticism of the author is inappropriate.
- Acknowledgement of Sources: Reviewers should identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors.
Duties of Editors
- Publication Decisions: The editors are responsible for deciding which of the articles submitted to the symposium should be published.
- Fair Play: Editors evaluate manuscripts for their intellectual content without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy of the authors.
Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI)
The International Symposium on Characterization clearly defines the acceptable and ethical use of GenAI tools in the preparation of submissions. Authors are permitted to use GenAI technologies (e.g., for language improvement or editing purposes) provided that such use is transparently disclosed. GenAI tools may not be listed as authors and must not replace the authors’ intellectual responsibility for the content, originality, data interpretation, or conclusions. All submissions remain subject to rigorous peer review to ensure academic integrity and originality.
