How does an author publish an Open Access article?

When a corresponding author submits an article to an IOP journal, he/she is asked to indicate his/her affiliation to his/her institution. If affiliated with a member institution listed above, IOP identifies the article as eligible for Open Access publication and sends an e-mail to the corresponding author.

Corresponding authors will be contacted by IOP to confirm that they wish to publish their article Open Access close to the time of acceptance of the article.

Opt-out: Authors can opt for an exception (within 5 days) and instead publish their article traditionally (paid access, behind a paywall).

There is no cost to, authors (or their institutions) if they wish to publish their article Open Access (thanks to the transformative agreement).

Articles published in Open Access will use a CC-BY license.

Detailed Instructions from the Publisher::
