Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Multiphoton microscopy enables sub-micron-scale spatial resolution of structures deep within scattering media that are inaccessbile via other imaging modalities. Additionally, high-speed scanners, detectors, and indicators provide sufficient temporal resolution to capture the dynamics of biological systems in vivo, such as the brain. Researchers and scientists around the world continue to develop multiphoton microscope technology that enables the interrogation of wider fields of view, larger depths, and/or faster dynamics for various applications. Whether through the direct manipulation of laser light, advancements in detector technology, or signal processing, the field of multiphoton microscopy is advancing rapidly.
This multi-disciplinary pursuit involves a broad range of scientists from technology innovators to researchers working in very niche fields. This Special Issue invites researchers to cross-pollinate the broader field of multiphoton microscopy with their technological advancements. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Three-photon microscopy;
- Third-harmonic generation microscopy;
- Wide-field multi-photon microscopy;
- High-speed/high-throughput imaging;
- Contrast enhancement in multiphoton microscopy;
- New techniques or implementations of light manipulation;
- Hardware miniaturization;
- Advances in image processing or detector technology.

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.
