APL 投稿两小修一拒稿,编辑给大修
各位虫友,我最近投稿一篇到APL,审稿意见如下:
Editor's Comments:
You will need to do a major revision to convince the referee who recommended rejection ta the paper can be published. You will also have ot address the comments of the ohter two reviewers

**************This work does not contain sufficient new science and results to warrant its publication in APL. In addition, the results are not carefully analyzed and some of the results lack scientific rigour. In view of this I reject its publication in APL and suggest its submission to a more specialized journal after major revisions.
2. For Fig.1 and also the following figures, how many samples were tested?
In particular, it is difficult to draw any conclusions for the mechanical properties without testing a large number of samples. Why aren't there any error bars on the
data shown in this manuscript? What is the meaning of the electrical and mechanical data in the absence of error bars?
4. Overall, I see that the authors draw conclusions about an eventual increase in the electromechanical characteristics. How significant are these increases if you take into account variations in samples, errors in the measurements, etc...? It would be also more interesting to analyze the data more carefully rather than only reporting the behaviors seen in each plot.
5. Reference list is not accurate and requires appropriate referencing of the earlier studies contacted by other groups in the field.

总的来说,审稿人一和三的审稿意见还是很好回复的。关键是这个审稿人二,问题无非是觉着工作不够原创,没啥料;再就是认为数据没用error bar, 可靠性不大。在我看过的很多论文里,不用error bar 的也不在少数,而且我也的确不知道该如何做error bar。
还请给位虫友指教。多谢

额
根据审稿意见修改,加error bar, 给出p value. 找个高手给你把把关。 That's it.
弱弱的问一句,为什么会有3个审稿人啊??
认认真真修改,审稿人要加什么就加什么,一般都会往好的方向发展,不到万不得已最好不要argue,记住你的目标是文章被接受,而不是争论学术问题。
如果第二个审稿人只写了这么些话的话,有些类似编辑模版拒稿的感觉。
但由于另外两个审稿意见都挺正面的,所以楼主的文章应该不想审稿人二号所说的毫无创新。而且目测审稿人二号提的这几个问题毫无深度。。
所以尽管把文章的亮点在response里写清楚,语气温和一点就行。
祝好运,
