Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Optical sensors and communication have attracted increasing attention from academia and industry in the past several decades. The growing demands in fields such as the biological, medical, structural health monitoring, and geophysical science fields have accelerated the research on and development of optical sensors with high sensing performance. However, optical sensors still encounter challenges; for example, innovative ideas are needed to achieve performance enhancements including high measurement accuracy, high spatial resolution, long sensing range, and large dynamic sensing range. Meanwhile, optical communications, including communications through optical fiber, through free space, under water, and in outer space have met an increasing capacity crisis. We hope to collect innovative ideas and schemes to address the challenges and to provide new opportunities.

Dr. Can Zhao

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Photonics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
