LaTeX template for journal articles
LaTeX guidelines and class file
The text of articles may be submitted in any common variant of TeX including LaTeX2e, REVTeX, AMS-LaTeX and plain TeX (including pdfTeX/pdfLaTeX). We provide a basic class file to help authors prepare articles for consideration by IOP journals, but it is not essential to use this class file or to format your article in the same style. Any common variant of TeX is acceptable.
The iopjournal class file is based on the standard LaTeX article class, with few additions. Authors can use any additional packages they choose to format their articles. For more information see the guidelines PDF file in the packages below.
One special addition to the iopjournal class is the [anonymous] option to prepare articles for double-anonymous peer review. Specify this option on the \documentclass declaration at the start of the file to exclude author names, affiliations, emails and acknowledgements (if the custom \ack command is used).
For guidance on how to upload LaTeX files to ScholarOne, please refer to this author guide.
