Article Requirements

Cover letter

Each manuscript must be accompanied by a cover letter including statements that:

• Highlight of the current manuscript should be limited to no more than 2 short sentences;

• All authors agree with the submission;

• The work has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere, either completely or in part, or in another form or language;

• No materials are reproduced from another source (if there is material in your manuscript which has been reproduced from another source, please change this item to 'there are some materials which are reproduced from another source. We have gotten authorization from the copyright holder to use them, and have included these authorizations with this submission');Conflict of Interest Statement

Organization of manuscript

For first submissions (i.e. not revised manuscripts), authors may choose to incorporate the manuscript text and figures into a single file (Microsoft Word or TeX/LaTeX) up to 30 MB in size — the figures may be inserted within the text at the appropriate positions. Article should include continuous line number. Supplementary Information should be supplied as a separate file, preferably in Word format.

Alternatively authors can follow the guidelines outlined below, which must be followed when submitting files for revisions.

All textual content should be provided in a single file, prepared using either Microsoft Word or TeX/LaTeX; figures should be provided in individual files. The manuscript text file should include the following parts, in order: a title page with author affiliations and contact information (the corresponding author should be identified with an asterisk); the sections required for each content type (see information for different content types) then References, Acknowledgements (optional), Author Contributions, Competing Financial Interests statement, Figure Legends and Tables. Footnotes to the text are not allowed and any such material should be incorporated into the text as parenthetical matter.

(i) Title page

The title page should include a succinct title (less than 200 characters); the full names of all authors including their given names; the affiliations (including city, state, country and zip code) of all authors; the official email addresses of all authors, and the full contact details of the corresponding author (including telephone and fax numbers).

(ii) Abstract

A brief abstract (maximum 250 words) should state the purpose, basic procedures, main findings and principal conclusions of the study. The abstract should not contain abbreviations or references and should not be structured.

(iii) Introduction

The Introduction should summarize the rationale for the study and outline pertinent background material. The Introduction should not contain either results or conclusions.

(iv) Results

The Results should be presented in a logical sequence in the text, tables and figures; repetitive presentation of the same data in different forms should be avoided. The Results should not include material appropriate to the Discussion.

(v) Discussion

The Discussion should not reiterate Results, but rather should consider them in relation to any hypotheses advanced in the Introduction. This may include an evaluation of methodology and the relationship of new information to the existing body of knowledge in that field.

(vi) Materials and methods

Materials and Methods should be described in sufficient detail to allow the experimental work to be reproduced in another laboratory, and to leave the reader in no doubt as to how the results were derived.

Availability of data, materials and methods: An inherent principle of publication is that others should be able to replicate and build upon the authors' published claims. A condition of publication is that authors are required to make materials, data, code, and associated protocols promptly available to readers without undue qualifications.

Submission of a manuscript to Microsystems & Nanoengineering implies that materials described in the manuscript, including all relevant raw data, will be freely available to any scientist wishing to use them for noncommercial purposes, without breaching participant confidentiality.

Data availability statements: Data availability statements provide a statement about where data supporting the results reported in a published article can be found - including, where applicable, hyperlinks to publicly archived datasets analysed or generated during the study. For all original research articles, we require the provision of data availability statements, examples and details can be seen on our data policy web page. The statement should be placed at the end of the Methods section (titled, ‘Data availability’), after the code availability statement if one is present. For further guidance, please refer to the Data availability and data citations policy information and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).

Microsystems & Nanoengineering strongly encourages that all datasets on which the conclusions of the paper rely should be available to readers. We encourage authors to ensure that their datasets are either deposited in publicly available repositories (where available and appropriate) or presented in the main manuscript or additional supporting files whenever possible. Please see Springer Nature’s information on recommended repositories. General repositories - for all types of research data - such as figshare and Dryad may be used where appropriate.

Where a widely established research community expectation for data archiving in public repositories exists, submission to a community-endorsed, public repository is mandatory. Persistent identifiers (such as DOIs and accession numbers) for relevant datasets must be provided in the paper.

(vii) Acknowledgments

Authors should acknowledge the source of financial grants and other funding, and declare any industrial links or affiliations. The contribution of colleagues or institutions should also be acknowledged. Personal thanks and thanks to anonymous reviewers should not be included.

(viii) Conflict of interests

A conflict of interest statement must be included for each contributing author. Please see the Conflict of Interest guidelines in the Editorial Policies section for more information and for guidelines on what constitutes a conflict of interest.

(ix) Author Contributions

The contributions of each author should be listed in general terms, for example, JS designed experiments and helped write the manuscript.

(x) References

References: All necessary references should be included in order to credit previous work directly relevant to the article. References should follow the Nature style available in most reference management software. In the text they should appear as superscript numbers starting at 1 and at the end of the paper they should be listed (double-spaced) in numerical order corresponding to the order of citation in the text. Where a reference is to appear next to a number in the text, for example, following an equation, chemical formula or biological acronym, citations should be written as (ref. X) and not as superscript. Example: “detectable levels of endogenous Bcl-2 (ref. 3), as confirmed by western blot.” All authors should be listed for papers with up to five authors; for papers with more than five authors, the first only should be listed, followed by et al. Abbreviations for titles of medical periodicals should conform to those used in the latest edition of Index Medicus. The first and last page numbers for each reference should be provided. Abstracts must be identified as such. Papers in press and preprints hosted on a recognized server may be included in the list of references.
