AIP citation format
The AIP Style Guide includes a definition of the AIP citation format, via TABLE II of the "10. Footnotes and references" section of Chapter II. [5] They are also covered in C. Lipson's Cite Right, [1] as well as in a document by Taylor & Francis, [6] and by various university library resources. [3] [2] [7] [8]
Various reference management software include modules to export sources to AIP citation format, including Zotero [9] and EndNote. [10]
Journal articles
For journal articles, some examples of proper AIP citation formats are reproduced below:
- K. F. Mak et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 136805 (2010).
- K. F. Mak et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 (13), 136805 (2010).
- K. F. Mak, C. Lee, J. Hone, J. Shan, and T. F. Heinz, Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 136805 (2010).
Some of the criteria include [1] [6]
- Title of article is excluded.
- Journal abbreviation is used, per its ISO 4. (Appendix G of AIP Style Manual [5] includes a list of journal abbreviations.)
- The blue is optional but usually contains the hyperlink to the online version of the article.
- Volume number is in boldface.
- Issue number can be specified in parentheses but is not required.
- Year is last and in parentheses.
Relation to APS and ACS styles
While the American Physical Society (APS) has its own style guide defined via the document Physical Review Style and Notation Guide, [11] it still uses the AIP citation format and follows much of the style conventions of the AIP style. In chemistry, there is the ACS style, created and developed by the American Chemical Society (ACS).
