Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Micro-nano optics is one of the most active frontiers in the current development of optics. It is irreplaceable in optical communication, storage, sensing measurement, solid-state lighting, biomedicine, security, green energy, and other fields. This Special Issue highlights the advancement of guided lightwaves in applications to nanomaterials and metamaterials, including simulations, fabrications, measurements and characterization. The scope of the Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Nanomaterials, metamaterials, and metasurfaces for photonic devices;
- Theory, fabrication, measurement, and applications of micro- and nano-scale sensors and metal-insulator and metal waveguide sensors;
- Photonic crystals and photonic crystal fiber micro- and nano-scaled structures for industrial, environmental, biological, and energy applications, including chemical, medical and biological applications, food and environmental monitoring, structural health monitoring and traditional and renewable energy monitoring;
- Novel concepts and mechanisms of guided lightwaves for micro- and nano-scaled structures;
- Advanced materials and structure technologies of guided lightwaves for sensing and measurements;
Nonlinear optics theory and applications of second harmonic generation (SHG) and third harmonic generation (THG) adsorption/detection/deterioration water and wastewater treatment plasmonic photocatalysts.

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 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. Micromachines 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 2600 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.
