Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The advancements in optical microscopy techniques have greatly transformed our understanding of physics, chemistry, and biology, from 2D to 3D. By utilizing the temporal and spatial aspects of light, a variety microscopes have been developed to capture kinetics and dynamics from targeted environments. Optical platforms with multiresolution capabilities enable researchers to not only observe events on a microscale but also to obtain correlated information on a macroscale. This has significantly contributed to the unveiling of dynamics in chemical and biological societies, such as motor protein dynamics, intracellular trafficking, and intercellular uptake. However, challenges still exist in applying a 3D multi-resolution system, such as the trade-off between spatial and temporal resolution, high background environment, limited throughput, and signal interference.
This Special Issue invites manuscripts that introduce recent advances in “3D Multi-Resolution System in Optics”. Theoretical, numerical, and experimental papers will be accepted. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Optical microscopy;
- Imaging processing;
- Single-molecule microscopy;
- Laser scanning microscopy;
- Stimulated emission depletion microscopy;
- Super-resolution microscopy and spectroscopy;
- 3D single-particle/single-molecule tracking microscopy;
- Advanced light-sensitive materials;
- Progress in high-quality optics, e.g., gratings, coatings, crystals, etc.;
- Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted imaging acquisition and analysis.

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.
