Most-cited papers in Small Methods

A Review of Direct Z‐Scheme Photocatalysts

Jingxiang Low, Chuanjia Jiang, Bei Cheng et al. · 18 Apr 2017

Recently, great attention has been paid to fabricating direct Z‐scheme photocatalysts for solar‐energy conversion due to their effectiveness for spatially separating photogenerated electron–hole pairs and optimizing the reduction and oxidation ability of the photocatalytic system. Here, the historical development of the Z‐scheme photocatalytic system is summarized, from its first generation (liquid‐phase Z‐scheme photocatalytic system) to…

Fundamentals and Applications of Metasurfaces

Hui‐Hsin Hsiao, Cheng Hung Chu, Din Ping Tsai · 24 Mar 2017

Metasurfaces have become a rapidly growing field of research in recent years due to their exceptional abilities in light manipulation and versatility in ultrathin optical applications. They also significantly benefit from their simplified fabrication process compared to metamaterials and are promising for integration with on‐chip nanophotonic devices owing to their planar profiles. The recent progress…

Evaluation of the BET Theory for the Characterization of Meso and Microporous MOFs

Filip Ambrož, Thomas J. Macdonald, Vladimir Martis et al. · 16 Aug 2018

Abstract Surface area determination with the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method is a widely used characterization technique for metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). Since these materials are highly porous, the use of the BET theory can be problematic. Several researchers have evaluated the BET method to gain insights into the usefulness of the obtained results and interestingly, their findings…

Synthesis Strategies of Porous Carbon for Supercapacitor Applications

Jian Yin, Wenli Zhang, Nuha A. Alhebshi et al. · 12 Feb 2020

Abstract Supercapacitors (SCs) have experienced a significant increase in research activity and commercialization during the past few decades. As the primary and most important electrode active material for commercial SCs, porous carbon is produced at an industrial‐scale through traditional carbonization‐activation strategies. Nevertheless, commercial porous carbon materials have some disadvantages such as high production cost, corrosion…

Recent Progress of Rechargeable Batteries Using Mild Aqueous Electrolytes

Jianhang Huang, Zhaowei Guo, Yuanyuan Ma et al. · 19 Sep 2018

Abstract Given the low cost, ease of fabrication, high safety, and environmental‐friendly characteristics, aqueous rechargeable batteries using mild aqueous solutions as electrolytes (pH is close to 7) and a monovalent/multivalent metal ion as charge carrier, are attracting extensive attention for energy storage. However, accompanied by advantages of mild aqueous electrolyte mentioned above, there are some…

Small Methods template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Small Methods format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Small Methods template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Wiley format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Small Methods use?
Small Methods uses Author–year (Chicago) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." Small Methods 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Small Methods?
No. DocuGuru generates the USG LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Wiley-ready Small Methods document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Small Methods template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Small Methods format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Small Methods?
Small Methods is a multidisciplinary journal published by Wiley. DocuGuru's Small Methods template matches Wiley's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Small Methods PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Small Methods template (the USG class) that is ready to submit to Wiley, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Small Methods template cost?
You can start writing in the Small Methods template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Small Methods PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
