Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering is published by IOP Publishing Ltd. and is in Zone 4 of Engineering in the CAS Journal Ranking (2025 upgraded edition). By OpenAlex counts of its recent articles, its largest topics are Advanced MEMS and NEMS Technologies, Mechanical and Optical Resonators and Microfluidic and Capillary Electrophoresis Applications, together about 34.8% of its articles. Its main subfields are Biomedical Engineering. (generated from OpenAlex topic counts and CAS ranking data)

Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering (JMM) primarily covers experimental work, however relevant modelling papers are considered where supported by experimental data. The journal is focussed on all aspects of: -nano- and micro- mechanical systems -nano- and micro- electomechanical systems -nano- and micro- electrical and mechatronic systems -nano- and micro- engineering -nano- and micro- scale science Please note that we do not publish materials papers with no obvious application or link to nano- or micro-engineering. Below are some examples of the topics that are included within the scope of the journal: -MEMS and NEMS: Including sensors, optical MEMS/NEMS, RF MEMS/NEMS, etc. -Fabrication techniques and manufacturing: Including micromachining, etching, lithography, deposition, patterning, self-assembly, 3d printing, inkjet printing. -Packaging and Integration technologies. -Materials, testing, and reliability. -Micro- and nano-fluidics: Including optofluidics, acoustofluidics, droplets, microreactors, organ-on-a-chip. -Lab-on-a-chip and micro- and nano-total analysis systems. -Biomedical systems and devices: Including bio MEMS, biosensors, assays, organ-on-a-chip, drug delivery, cells, biointerfaces. -Energy and power: Including power MEMS/NEMS, energy harvesters, actuators, microbatteries. -Electronics: Including flexible electronics, wearable electronics, interface electronics. -Optical systems. -Robotics.

Sources count differently and were observed at different times, so each source's own value is kept; "publisher" marks figures from the journal's website.

Community reports come from authors' own submissions (confidence 0.5) and are not a promise from the journal; for publisher figures, the journal's own definitions apply.

A hybrid journal charges the APC only when the author chooses open access; publishing under the subscription model is usually free.

The journal's website is authoritative for fees; sources were observed at different times and each keeps its own value, without averaging.
