Open access publishing is not without costs. Micro and Nano Systems Letters therefore levies an article-processing charge of £1560.00/$2290.00/€1870.00 for each article accepted for publication, plus VAT or local taxes where applicable.
If the corresponding author's institution participates in our open access membership program, some or all of the publication cost may be covered (more details available on the membership page). We routinely waive charges for authors from low-income countries. For other countries, article-processing charge waivers or discounts are granted on a case-by-case basis to authors with insufficient funds. Authors who are not eligible to receive charge waivers or discounts may use the following SpringerOpen membership account number (submission code) when submitting your article: JS-SMNS-MNSL-0322. This means that the publication costs are covered by The Society of Micro and Nano Systems.
