Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, optical detection and imaging systems have revolutionized science, medicine, and engineering, enabling breakthroughs in fundamental research and practical applications. From cutting-edge microscopy techniques enabling nanoscale visualization to advanced sensing technologies driving autonomous systems and environmental monitoring, this field has seen exponential growth in recent years. The development of high-performance optical systems plays a pivotal role in tackling some of the most pressing challenges across disciplines, such as healthcare, physics, security, and material science. With the recent integration of artificial intelligence, computational imaging, and novel material technologies, the future holds even greater promise for pushing the boundaries of resolution, sensitivity, and application diversity.
This Special Issue aims to bring together cutting-edge research and review articles on advanced optical detection and imaging systems. Our goal is to highlight innovative approaches, emerging trends, and significant applications across various domains.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Development of novel optical imaging techniques;
- Novel optical detection mechanisms and instrumentation;
- Applications of advanced imaging in biological, industrial, and environmental contexts;
- Machine learning and computational methods for imaging enhancement;
- Integration of multi-modal imaging systems;
- New optical materials and devices enabling advanced detection.

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. Electronics 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.
