Citations are now part of the Lens tools in PRISM. Ask who cites whom, filter by citation counts, and rank the results in charts — for scientific publications and patents alike.
Key Features:
- Filter by Citation Count: Narrow any paper or patent search to records above (or below) a citation threshold — a fast proxy for impact.
- Forward Citation Search: Find the papers that cite a given paper, or the patents that cite a given patent — the whole downstream trail of a key publication.
- Non-Patent Literature for Patents: Filter patents by their non-patent literature references — the bridge between a patent portfolio and the science it is built on.
- Chart-Ready Results: Citation fields work with Prism's charting, so results can be ranked in a bar chart or plotted against each other — e.g. forward patent citations vs. non-patent literature references in a scatter plot.
