What are the limitations of using engrXiv for Nanotechnology research?
One primary limitation is the lack of formal peer review, which may lead to the dissemination of preliminary results that could change significantly after further experimentation. Additionally, the open-access nature of engrXiv means that sensitive or proprietary information might not be suitable for sharing on the platform. Researchers should also be cautious of the potential for their work being used without proper citation, although the platform provides mechanisms for assigning DOIs to preprints to help mitigate this issue.
