Citation Format

Articles published in AIP Advances use a citation format based on a six-digit citation identifier (CID). The CID chosen for AIP Advances is similar to that used by Physical Review. Use of CIDs in place of traditional page numbers allows an issue to build online one article at a time while retaining the ability to segment tables of contents by article type or subject area; this accelerates online publication of articles, which are published online individually as soon as author proof corrections are incorporated

The structure of the six-digit citation identifier is defined as follows:

first two digits indicate the issue number
middle two digits: indicate the article type and/or subject area
last two digits: assigned according to publication order, within that issue and section

Example:

An example of the correct citation format for an article in AIP Advances is:

A. Smith and B. Jones, AIP Advances 1, 012107 (2011).

In this fictitious example, the article by Smith and Jones was published in

AIP Advances in Issue 1 of Volume 1, as the seventh article published in section 21, which for AIP Advances Vol. 1 is, "Regular Articles."

In the full-text PDF file available online and in the printed article, the CID appears on each printed page. Appended at the end of the CID is a hyphen followed by a consecutive page number. For the sample article above, the printed pages would carry this page numbering: 012107-1, 012107-2, 012107-3, etc. The hyphen and additional digits should not be used when citing or searching for an article.
