Top 10 ICMAB articles with a higher IF in 2023 - A year in review

The Clarivate journal Impact Factor metric system gives a yearly numeric indicator of how much has an article been cited and how much impact has it had. With a total of 211 of publications with IF, ICMAB’s average IF has been at 8.5, with an 23 % of all publications having an IF higher than 10. These are the ICMAB articles that have had a higher IF during 2023. This year, articles with higher IF range from the topics of growth, to solar panels and batteries, to nanoparticles and nanotechnology:
