1. General Information
Fuel Cells - From Fundamentals to Systems is an international forum publishing all scientific and technical aspects of all types of fuel cells and fuel-cell systems for mobile and stationary applications as well as power sources in portables, in the form of reviews, original research papers, communications, and reports as described below.
Each contribution submitted to Fuel Cells will be sent to independent referees. Authors are encouraged to suggest suitable referees. However, not exclusively those referees nominated by the authors will be contacted. All accepted manuscripts are edited before printing to ensure scientific consistency, clarity of presentation, and uniformity of style.
The authors must inform the Editor of manuscripts submitted to, soon to be submitted to, or in press at other journals that have a bearing on the manuscript being submitted. All submissions must be in keeping with the Ethical Guidelines for Publication in Journals and Reviews of the European Association of Chemical and Molecular Sciences. In particular, authors should reveal all sources of funding for the work presented in the manuscript and should declare any conflict of interest. IMPORTANT: Any manuscript already available on personal/group web pages will be considered by the Editors as already published and will not be accepted.
Manuscripts will be published online in advance of the print version under Early View on the Fuel Cells homepage. There are no page charges for articles published in Fuel Cells.

3. Types of Manuscripts
Review Articles deal with topics of current interest in any area covered by the journal. Rather than an assemblage of detailed information, they should give a critical overview of a particular field, providing the reader with an appreciation of the importance of the work, a summary of recent developments, a balanced discussion of (unsolved) problems, possible developments and progress, and well selected literature coverage. Reviews ought to be composed with the general perspective of the topic as the central thread. Although Review Articles are generally written on invitation, unsolicited manuscripts are also welcome provided their contents are in keeping with the character of the journal. Authors should discuss the article with the Editor at an early stage.
Original Research Papers (Full Papers) must be either of current general interest or of great significance to a more specialized readership and should report comprehensive details of completed experimental or theoretical studies, and have well developed discussions, background information and literature coverage. All contributions will be judged on the criteria of originality, quality and novelty. Manuscripts must not have been published previously, except in the form of a preliminary Communication (reprint requested). Original Research Papers have no length restrictions; however, space should be used economically.
Communications are unsolicited, peer-reviewed, short reports that warrant rapid dissemination. Preliminary results of experimental or theoretical studies might be presented, which will usually be followed up by an Original Research Paper. The results must be of great significance and contribute to the development or further development of an important area of research. There will be an accelerated review process for Communications. Inclusive of all references, footnotes, and tables, Communications are limited to 6 type-written doubly spaced pages; formulae, figures, and schemes may also be added. Longer articles will be considered Original Research Papers.
Reports are contributions outlining recent developments in certain areas within the scope of the journal, which may not satisfy scientific criteria in all respects, but contain information that may be of eminent interest to the reader.
4. Manuscript Styling
Authors are encouraged to consult recent issues of the journal for examples of format. Papers must be written in English. Authors who are less familiar with the English language should seek assistance from proficient colleagues in order to produce manuscripts that are grammatically and linguistically correct. It is not the task of the Editor or the publisher to rectify incorrect English; papers with incorrect English will not be accepted for publication.
All text pages, including equations, references, tables, and figure legends, must be saved as a single DOC, RTF or LaTeX file.
The structure of the paper should be as follows: title of the paper, author(s) name(s), institution with complete addresses of the author(s), e-mail address of corresponding author, abstract, keywords, main text (maximum 3 numbered headings (1, 1.1, 1.1.1), additional fourth heading without numeration), acknowledgements (optional), appendix (optional), list of symbols (highly recommended), references and at the end of the text tables including captions and figure captions.
Please use the template (dot) or sample template in word (doc) (www.fuelcells.wiley-vch.de under "For Authors").
4.1. Title, Headings, Keywords
In the manuscript title, headings and keywords please capitalise the first letters of all words except conjunctions, articles and prepositions. The title of the paper, with as many meaningful terms as possible, should typically not exceed 15 words. Five to ten keywords should be added and specified in alphabetical order.
4.2. Abstract
The abstract should summarise the content of the paper but an extended repetition of the article title is not appropriate. It should be as informative as possible but must not exceed 200 words.
4.3. Main text
The main text should be written as continuous text, please do not use columns and do not use returns within a paragraph.
- Variables and constants should be written in italics.
- Physical data must be given with decimal points and negative exponents (I = 0.8 A cm-2, R = 8.314 J mol-1 K-1).
- Equations should be numbered consecutively with numbers in round brackets and referred to in the text (Eq. (1) or Eqs. (2)-(4). Please use only numbers, do not use e.g. 1a, 1b, ... .
- Figures, schemes and tables must be referred to in the Text. They are to be numbered with Arabic numerals in the sequence in which they occur. For labelling of figures, schemes, tables and sections within the text use following styles: Figure 1, Scheme 2, Table 3 and Section 4.5.
- Numerations are written in Latin lower case letters in parentheses ( (i), (ii), ...).
- Abbreviations like cf., e.g., i.e., etc., or et al. should not be written in italics.
- Latin words like in situ, ex situ, vs., via, ad hoc, post mortem should be written in italics.
4.4. References
Only articles that have already been published or are in press should be cited. References must be numbered sequentially, in the order in which they are cited in the text with numbers in square brackets, e.g. [2,13]. Use consecutive numbering, i.e. 1, 2, ?not 1, 2a, 2b, ?. They are to be collected in numerical order at the end of the manuscript under the heading References. Responsibility for the accuracy of all bibliographic data rests with the authors. Titles of journals must be abbreviated according to the practice of Chemical Abstracts (CAS) (www.cas.org/sent.html) and references should follow the format given below, with all blanks, commas and periods as well as bold and italic letters.

Color Charge Agreement). The colors for color artwork must be defined with the CMYK system (do not use the RGB color system, which is common in Windows).
Each diagram, scheme, figure or photograph should be saved as a separate file (EPS, JPG or TIFF files). They should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in the order of their appearance in the text. Each figure must be referred to in the text and is to be accompanied by a legend, which should be self-explanatory. The legends should be collected at the end of the manuscript on a separate page. Chemical structures should be produced with a graphics program (e.g. ChemDraw, ISIS Draw or Chemsketch) and be saved as separate files (soft- and hardware should be specified). They should be numbered in the order of their appearance with Arabic numerals in parentheses. When working with ChemDraw, please use the respective template (www.fuelcells.wiley-vch.de under 揊or Authors?. Mathematical equations are to be incorporated in the text pages at the places they belong. They must be labeled with Arabic numerals in parentheses in the right-hand margin and in the order of their appearance.
The quality of the illustrations in the Journal depends on the quality of the originals provided (minimum resolution: 300 dpi). Graphics cannot be modified or improved by the journal production staff. Units in tables and figures/diagrams must be separated from symbol by slash (i / A cm-2, or Current density / A cm-2).
5. Quantities, Units and Nomenclature
Authors are requested to quote quantities in SI units only. When a non-SI unit is still in use, it may be cited with the corresponding value in parentheses after the quantity expressed in SI units. Particular care is to be taken to use correct unit symbols. Nomenclature must follow international rules.
6. Proofs and Reprints
Checking of proofs is solely the authors?responsibility. The correspondence author will receive the page proofs via e-mail as a PDF file (low resolution) together with instructions and reprint order form. Page proofs and reprint order form should be printed out. The proofs should be carefully corrected and all changes must be marked with black pen directly on the print-outs. A list of corrections should be added. Reprints are available upon payment. The reprint order form should be filled out, even if additional reprints are not required. Both corrected page proofs and reprint order form should then be returned, preferably via fax, to the Editor. Editors reserve the right to give the imprimatur for publication if the corrected proofs are not returned to the responsible Editor in the given time limit. The correspondence author will receive one complementary copy of the journal issue.
