Joule对标Nature Energy
Joule, a sister journal to Cell, is a home for outstanding and insightful research, analysis and ideas addressing a key global challenge: the need for more sustainable energy.
Nature Energy is a monthly, online-only journal publishing the best research on energy, from its generation and distribution to the impacts energy technologies and policies have on societies.

Chem对标Nature Chemistry
Chem, a sister journal to Cell, provides a home for seminal and insightful research and showcases how fundamental studies in chemistry and its sub-disciplines may help in finding potential solutions to the global challenges of tomorrow.
Nature Chemistry is a monthly journal dedicated to publishing high-quality papers that describe the most significant and cutting-edge research in all areas of chemistry.

Matter对标Nature Materials
Matter, a sister journal to Cell, is a monthly journal encompassing the general field of materials science, from nano to macro, fundamentals to application. Recognizing that materials discovery and development facilitate groundbreaking technologies bridging multiple disciplines, Matter will embrace all significant advances in materials research, encompassing the previously unknown and the innovative.
Nature Materials is a monthly journal publishing the best research from all areas of materials science and engineering

iScience对标Nature Communications / Science Advances
iScience is an interdisciplinary open access journal. We publish basic and applied research that advances a specific field across the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology.
Nature Communications is an open access journal that publishes high-quality research from all areas of the natural sciences.
Science Advances is the American Association for the Advancement of Science’s (AAAS) open access multidisciplinary journal, publishing impactful research papers and reviews in any area of science, in both disciplinary-specific and broad, interdisciplinary areas.

Cell Reports Physical Science对标Communications Chemistry, Communications Physics, and Communications Materials
Cell Reports Physical Science—a new broad-scope, open access journal from Cell Press—publishes cutting-edge research across the spectrum of the physical sciences, including chemistry, physics, materials science, energy science, engineering, and related interdisciplinary work.
Communications Chemistry is an open access journal from Nature Research publishing high-quality research, reviews and commentary in all areas of the chemical sciences.
Communications Physics is an open access journal from Nature Research publishing high-quality research, reviews and commentary in all areas of physics.
Communications Materials is a selective open access journal from Nature Research publishing high-quality research, reviews and commentary in all areas of materials science.

Heliyon对标Scientific Reports
Heliyon is an open access journal publishing scientifically accurate and valuable research across life, physical, social, and medical sciences.
Scientific Reports is an open access journal publishing original research from across all areas of the natural and clinical sciences. We publish scientifically valid primary research from all areas of the natural and clinical sciences.

得到结论如下：Nature / Science / Cell > Nature Energy / Nature Materials / Nature Chemistry / Joule / Matter / Chem > Nature Communications / Science Advances / iScience > Communications Physics / Communications Chemistry / Communications Biology / Cell Reports Physical Science > Scientific Reports / Heliyon
