Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Chiral optics in nanotechnology presents a captivating realm where asymmetric and symmetric studies converge, unveiling a rich landscape of optical phenomena with profound implications. This Special Issue delves into the intricate interplay between asymmetric and symmetric properties in chiral nanomaterials and devices, elucidating their roles in manipulating light at the nanoscale. Asymmetric configurations imbue materials with unique optical properties, enabling applications in chiral sensing, imaging, and communication. Conversely, understanding the symmetric aspects facilitates the design of versatile chiral metamaterials and plasmonic structures with tailored optical responses. By synergizing asymmetry and symmetry in chiral optics, this Special Issue endeavors to advance our comprehension of light–matter interactions in nanoscale systems and pave the way for groundbreaking technological innovations.

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. Symmetry 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.
