Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Optical MEMS and photonics have made significant progress in recent years and are finding increasing applications in various fields. Optical MEMS devices, such as mirrors and filters, are capable of manipulating light with high precision, making them essential components for optical communication, sensing, imaging, and display systems. Photonics, which encompasses the generation, detection, and manipulation of light, is a field that is quickly transforming a wide range of technologies.

This Special Issue aims to highlight the recent developments and emerging trends in optical MEMS and photonics, encouraging the exchange of ideas and collaborations among the optical MEMS and photonics community. It is expected to appeal to researchers, engineers, and scientists working in the fields of optics, MEMS, Photonics, and related areas. Contributions are sought in the following areas but are not limited to:

  • Design and modeling of optical MEMS and photonics;
  • Fabrication techniques for optical MEMS and photonics;
  • Integration of optical MEMS with other technologies;
  • Characterization and testing of optical MEMS;
  • Applications of optical MEMS in sensing, imaging, and communications;
  • Novel optical MEMS devices and architectures;
  • Novel frequency comb and the related applications.

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. Micromachines 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 2100 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.
