Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue of Photonics explores the cutting edge of optical metamaterials—artificial structures employed to manipulate light in peculiar ways. During the past few decades, this area has attracted significant attention; researchers used metal, dielectric, and hybrid structures to create optical effects on demand. Optical metamaterials and metasurfaces are proposed for creating miniaturized, multifunctional devices for advanced imaging, processing, and focusing applications.

With this issue, we aim to showcase the latest advancements in optical metamaterials, highlighting their transformative potential. We strive to explore both fundamental research and practical applications; the topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:

  • Plasmonic and dielectric metasurfaces;
  • Volumetric metamaterials;
  • Novel optical phenomena;
  • Advanced fabrication techniques;
  • Light–matter interaction;
  • Metadevices for biophotonics;
  • Integrated metaoptics.

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.
