• Use these formats for best results: Smith or J Smith
• Use a comma to separate multiple people: J Smith, RL Jones, Macarthur

Any : All :

Tips for preparing a search:

Keep it simple - don't use too many different parameters.
Separate search groups with parentheses and Booleans. Note the Boolean sign must be in upper-case.
- Example: (diode OR solid-state) AND laser [search contains "diode" or "solid-state" and laser]
- Example: (photons AND downconversion) - pump [search contains both "photons" and "downconversion" but not "pump"]
Improve efficiency in your search by using wildcards.

Asterisk ( * ) -- Example: "elect*" retrieves documents containing "electron," "electronic," and "electricity"
Question mark (?) -- Example: "gr?y" retrieves documents containing "grey" or "gray"

Use quotation marks " " around specific phrases where you want the entire phrase only.
For best results, use the separate Authors field to search for author names.
Author name searching:
- Use these formats for best results: Smith or J Smith
- Use a comma to separate multiple people: J Smith, RL Jones, Macarthur
- Note: Author names will be searched in the keywords field, also, but that may find papers where the person is mentioned, rather than papers they authored.
