Advanced Photonic Sensing and Measurement II

Dear Colleagues,

In the continuation of the momentum generated by the successful "Advanced Photonic Sensing and Measurement" special issue, we embark on a new chapter of exploration. Over the past decade, the landscape of scientific progress has been witness to remarkable strides in photonics, leading to a seismic shift that displaces traditional technologies. This transformative change has unveiled a realm of unprecedented possibilities in the realm of sensing and measurement. These breakthroughs have given rise to novel optical and optoelectronic measuring systems, constituting a significant milestone in innovation across a multitude of science and engineering domains. With an unwavering commitment to amplify the impact of this swiftly evolving field, we are thrilled to introduce yet another Special Issue that stands as a continuum of excellence. This platform aims to unite experts, cultivating innovative solutions for the imminent challenges in photonic sensing and measurement.

The scope of this Special Issue spans a wide horizon, including but not limited to the following facets:

• Optical fiber sensors;
• Biophotonics;
• Optical coherence tomography;
• Fiber-optic spectroscopy;
• Quantum optics for sensing;
• Nonlinear optical techniques for sensing;
• Ultrafast laser-based sensing;
• Photonic crystal sensors;
• Biochemical sensing using photonics;
• Optical nanosensors;
• Remote sensing using photonics;
• Terahertz photonics;
• Optical instrumentation and measurement;
• Photonic devices for sensing and measurement;

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
