Journal of Optics publishes new experimental and theoretical research across all areas of pure and applied optics, both modern and classical. Research areas are categorised as:
Nanophotonics and plasmonics
Metamaterials and structured photonic materials
Quantum photonics
Biophotonics
Light-matter interactions
Nonlinear and ultrafast optics
Propagation, diffraction and scattering
Optical communication
Integrated optics
Photovoltaics and energy harvesting
We discourage incremental advances, purely numerical simulations without any validation, or research without a strong optics advance, e.g. computer algorithms applied to optical and imaging processes, equipment designs or material fabrication.
