Manuscript Structure

Manuscripts are written with structure; 1. Introduction, 2. Methods (can include analysis, architecture, methods used to solve problems, implementation), 3. Results and Discussion, 4. Conclusion, 5. Acknowledgments (optional) and 6. Reference List.

The contents of the introduction are answers to questions: (1). Background, (2). Brief literature review of related research (3). Reasons for conducting this research and (4). Purpose question. State of the art, gap analysis and noverlity can be seen here. Avoid discussing general literature reviews and definitions.

Research methodology

Describe the preparation method and characterization techniques used. Describe briefly, but remain accurate such as size, volume, replication and machining techniques. For new methods it should be explained in detail so that other researchers can reproduce the experiment. Meanwhile, established methods can be explained by picking references.

Script Length

Manuscripts are written in A4 paper size with a minimum number of pages of 10 pages excluding the list of references, a maximum of 15 pages, including tables and figures, spacing between paragraphs of 1.15pt and with reference to the writing procedures as compiled in this paper.

Results and Discussion

Can use Tables and Figures but does not describe repeatedly the same data in images, tables and text. To further clarify the description, you can use subtitles.

The discussion is a basic explanation, relationships and generalizations shown by the results. The description answers the research question. If there are doubtful results then present them objectively.

An easy way to write scripts is to write directly in journal template.

In the conclusion there should be no references. The conclusion contains the facts obtained, sufficient to answer the problem or research objectives (do not constitute further discussion); State the possible applications, implications and speculations as appropriate. If necessary, provide suggestions for further research. State the conclusion in sentences in the form of paragraphs, not in the form of numbering.

Acknowledgments (if any)

Mention the name of the donor and facility provider who helps.
