About the Journal
Brief Background
The Journal of Microwaves, Optoelectronics and Electromagnetic Applications (JMOe) is a scientific journal published by the scientific associations "Brazilian Microwave and Optoelectronics Society" (SBMO) and "Brazilian Society of Electromagnetism" (SBMag). It is a fully electronic publication whose objective is to disseminate technical and scientific knowledge in the fields of Microwaves, Optoelectronics, and Applied Electromagnetism. The journal is published quarterly. Submitted articles undergo review by at least two reviewers (typically one Brazilian and one foreign) from the technical field of the research. Accepted and published articles are original and available for open access with download via internet. Authors retain copyright and distribution rights.
The JMOe was created by the SBMO in 1996 under the title Journal of Microwaves and Optoelectronics (JMO). It was one of the first electronic scientific journals published in Brazil. Its first issue was published in May 1997, and the first ISSN number was obtained in 2005. It remained an exclusive publication of SBMO until 2008, when it became a joint publication of SBMO and SBMag. At that time, its title was changed to the current one. In 2010, the JMOe’s ISSN number was also changed to the current one.
Open Access
This journal follows the Open Access model, allowing unrestricted online access (including no financial restrictions) to all scientific texts published by the journal.
Open Access is the condition under which the copyright holder of an academic work grants usage rights to third parties using an open license (Creative Commons Attribution, CC-BY), allowing immediate free access to the work and authorizing any user to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of the articles, crawl them for indexing, feed them as data to software, or use them for any other legal purpose.
Open Science Compliance
JMOe embraces Open Science, a global movement that aims primarily to make knowledge generated from scientific research open and shared with the global scientific community. In addition to providing open access to published research results, in accordance with the principles of Open Science, JMOe makes public the procedures to be followed by editors, reviewers, and authors regarding issues, such as the article evaluation process, recording in the article of each authors contribution to the research, acceptance of data sharing, disclosure in the article regarding the availability of supplementary and/or additional data and information on tools for accessing such data, publication of the names of the editors responsible for evaluating and approving the article, publication of errata when errors or omissions in a published article are identified, and, likewise, cases of retraction.
Additionally, articles must be submitted with the Open Science Compliance Form completed as a supplementary file, in which the author indicates whether the article cites data, program codes, and other materials complementary to the articles. If so, the respective URLs must be provided to make them accessible.
In accordance with the principles of Open Science, the Journal allows the corresponding author to submit the article, preferably to the SciELO Preprints server, either at the time of submission or subsequently.
Ethics in Publication
JMOe adopts the ethical principles established by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), which outlines guidelines for editors, reviewers, and authors regarding the following aspects: study design and ethical approval; rigor in data analysis; determination of authorship; identification of conflicts of interest; rigor in peer review; misconduct; redundant publication; plagiarism; etc. For more information on COPE guidelines, visit: www.publicationethics.org
