IEEE Citation Generator
Create an IEEE reference with a configurable reference number, DOI import and author-list handling aligned with the current IEEE Reference Guide.

Crossref supplies bibliographic metadata; PubMed/NLM is checked for a journal abbreviation when available.
Family, Given Middle.IEEE citations: verify technical-source metadata
IEEE uses numbered references and is common in engineering and computing. Accurate author order, paper title, publication venue, volume/issue, pages, year and DOI are more important than trying to fix punctuation by hand afterward.
Keep the numbered-reference workflow consistent across the document rather than mixing author–date conventions into the bibliography.
- Check conference versus journal source type.
- Verify page range and publication year.
- Use DOI data when available, then review it.

Need the same source in a different style?
IEEE and ACS handle technical-source details differently. Reuse accurate bibliographic data, then check the ACS output against the chemistry style variant required by your course or journal.

Questions
How does Lynara handle more than six authors?
IEEE guidance lists all authors up to six; for more than six Lynara uses the primary author followed by et al.
Does the tool include the bracketed reference number?
Yes. You can choose the number used at the start of the generated reference.
