Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the modulation and utilization of optical scattering have “transformed chaos into order” and “turned disorder into secure coding”, which have significantly expanded the development of fields such as computational optics, biophotonics, and micro-nano photonics. Therefore, this Special Issue is intended for the presentation of new ideas and experimental results of optical scattering within interdisciplinary realms. Areas relevant to the applications of optical scattering include, but are not limited to, deep tissue focusing, microinvasive imaging, optical computing, vector field manipulation, optical tweezer, nonlinear modulation, 3D holography, learning-based optical imaging, and learning-based optical encryption.

This Special Issue will publish high-quality research articles, review articles, and short communications in the following overlapping fields:

  • Deep tissue focusing;
  • Microinvasive/noninvasive imaging;
  • Optical computing;
  • Vector field manipulation;
  • Optical tweezer;
  • Nonlinear modulation;
  • 3D holography;
  • Learning-based optical imaging;
  • Learning-based optical encryption.

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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
