You can use Bibliometrix R Tool (Web of Science and Scopus data).
Bibliometrix R package. A free tool that provides various routines for importing bibliographic data from SCOPUS and Clarivate Analytics' Web of Science databases, performing bibliometric analysis and building data matrices for co-citation, coupling, scientific collaboration analysis and co-word analysis.
