Their own guidelines and our own experience have shown that following the rules described below are important.

FRONT MATTER
Title
- Check that the manuscript title is in upper lower case, following APA Style:
- Capitalize the first letter of each word including Nouns, verbs (including linking verbs), adjectives, adverbs, pronouns, and all words of four letters or more;
- Other words including short (i.e., three letters or fewer) conjunctions, short prepositions such as “for”, “and”, “or” are lower case
- Correct example: Texturization of Monocrystalline Silicon Wafers
- Wrong example: TEXTURIZATION OF MONOCRYSTALLINE SILICONE WAFERS
- Correct any spelling errors
- If there is a subtitle, place it below the title but in a smaller font size
Authors and Affiliations
- Enter all authors’ first name and surname and follow the “first name last name” format without any punctuation
- If the author has no last name, then repeat the first name e.g. “Abyasa” => “Abyasa Abyasa”. Note: Unfortunately, Google Scholar does not properly index publications with authors without a last name.
- Mark the corresponding author by adding an asterisk (“*”) after their name. If no corresponding author is marked the first author will become corresponding author by default. Reselection after publication is not possible.
- Provide the affiliations for all authors with department name, [division], institution/affiliated university, city, country. - Example: Sport Cancer Laboratory EA4670, Luminy Campus, Aix-Marseille University, Marseille, France.
- Add the affiliation identifier (e.g. 1,2,3) in superscript to the matching author and affiliation in the correct order
- Please note that the department name and other affiliation details should be provided in English.
Abstract
- Provide a complete and correct abstract summarising your work. Abstracts are mandatory
- If you cite literature in the abstract, always refer to it explicitly and write out the whole citation (e.g. Surname, Initials (year), Article Title, Journal title/Book title, Volume Number (Issue Number), Page range)
