Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Optical frequency comb (OFC) is composed of a series of equally spaced and phase-coherent frequency components. Its unique property in the frequency and time domain brings revolutionary development in the fields of precision spectroscopy, optical communication, frequency/waveform synthesis, precision metrology, etc. With the OFC generation technique developed from mode-locked Ti: Sapphire laser to fiber laser and further to microresonator laser, the OFC system has been significantly compacted from table-sized bulk electro-optic components to coin-sized integrated photonics chips, promising a wider application in sensoring and measurement. To further boost the impact of this exciting and rapidly evolving field, this Special Issue aims to bring together contributions from leading experts in the field, presenting recent advances in sensoring and measurement with optical frequency comb.
The areas of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Special OFC source for sensoring and measurement;
- Novel OFC frequency stabilization scheme for sensoring and measurement;
- Optical frequency measurement and delivery with OFC;
- Laser ranging for cooperative and non-cooperative objects with OFC;
- Angle and angular acceleration measurement with OFC;
- 3D topography and surface measurement with OFC;
- Precision spectroscopy with OFC;
- Biochemical sensoring with OFC.

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.
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.
