Core Viewpoint - The launch of the first international academic journal in the field of high-end scientific instruments in China, titled "Advanced Scientific Instruments" (ASI), aims to address the publication challenges in this sector and establish a world-class platform for academic exchange [2][4]. Group 1: Journal Overview - The journal is hosted by China Science Publishing & Media Ltd. and aims to break the "research without platform" dilemma in high-end scientific instruments [2]. - ASI serves as a cross-disciplinary international exchange platform for research results in the fields of instruments, instrumentation, and measurement [4]. Group 2: Journal Sections - Section A focuses on the development of scientific instruments, covering innovative designs, methods, and theoretical aspects [5][6]. - Section B emphasizes new devices and technologies in photonics, lasers, and radar, including various types of spectroscopy and optical metrology [7][8]. - Section C highlights advancements in imaging and microscopy, including micro-nano metrology and real-time image analysis [9][10]. - Section D discusses advanced theories and applications in microelectronics, optoelectronics, and chip-based processes [11][12]. - Section E covers automation in smart instruments, quantum sensing, and various measurement techniques [13][14]. - Section F focuses on new data analysis tools and methods, including machine learning and signal processing [15][16]. Group 3: Industry Context - Currently, there are several related journals in China's scientific instrument industry, such as "Journal of Analytical Chemistry" and "Journal of Instrumentation" [17]. - The inclusion of scientific instruments in national strategic priorities may lead to the emergence of more related journals in the future, potentially influencing procurement decisions for end-users [17].
