Diary 8

|
2016 - 08 - 29 My previous work about free-space coupling is now accepted by Optics Letters (OL), with suggestion of minor revision. I would say it's definitely a good news, and now I have a real publication `list', with two items (lol). However, when comparing with other articles accepted by OL, a question raised that whether my work worth publishing, or just due to my advisor's personal reputation? OL is a journal covers numerous topics, therefore it's hard for me to give a quantitatively quality check with peer articles; instead, I would say that many articles are interesting to me, while my own is not. Perhaps this could be accounted as the accumulated tiredness for times of revision of the manuscript, or other convincible psychological arguments, but I'm still nervous about my future. I would definitely go to a not-so-bad school fulfilling my PhD, and then postdoc, and then looking for a tenure position, abroad or in China. I don't know what would happen if, which is very probably, I get a position at a place that is not well-known and then submit a work with similar quality as this OL one. My personal judgement is that, it would be rejected and cannot survive even the quick quality check before transferring to topic editor. Honestly, this fear has surrounded me since yesterday when I noticed the acceptance. But for now, I shall keep working, at least making me a better scholar with better works in the future, and better tenure position. The pattern academic society runs is not changeable for me as a nobody. If one day I could be someone, the situation might be much more friendly, and then lead to a real evolution in science. |
