[Tex/LaTex] Use ieeetran.bst to display article ID instead of page numbers

bibtexieeetran

I am following the IEEE style manual which gives the following examples:

[1] M. Ito et al., “Application of amorphous oxide TFT to electrophoretic display,” J. Non-Cryst. Solids, vol. 354, no. 19, **pp. 2777–2782**, Feb. 2008.
[2] R. Fardel, M. Nagel, F. Nuesch, T. Lippert, and A. Wokaun, “Fabrication of organic light emitting diode pixels by laser-assisted forward transfer,” Appl. Phys. Lett., vol. 91, no. 6, Aug. 2007, **Art.ID. 061103**.
[3] J. Zhang and N. Tansu, “Optical gain and laser characteristics of InGaN quantum wells on ternary InGaN substrates,” IEEE Photon. J., vol. 5, no. 2, Apr. 2013, **Art. ID 2600111**.

Note that article ID at the end. How to I best encode this article ID in a bibtex entry? I currently use

  note         = {{Art. ID R115}},

but I am not sure this is the most versatile way. For example, there is an eid field in bibtex, which seems to be ignored by ieeetran.

Which BibTeX fields are supported largely depends on which bibliography style you are using. The one recommended for use with the IEEEtrans class is IEEEtran. The style itself is defined in IEEEtran.bst which does not mention the eid field, nor seems to have special handling for article ids. Hence I would say that using the note field seems a valid choice.
