Recent Advances in Optical Metrology

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the advances in scientific and technological development, optical metrology has been widely applied in various applications such as industrial inspection, biomedical imaging, experimental mechanics, smart agriculture, and consumer entertainment. Based on the hardware devices and working principles, optical metrology can be divided into numerous different types: structure light, laser interferometry, holographic interferometry, digital holography, stereo vision, time of flight, etc. In recent years, many scholars have developed various advanced techniques for optical metrology and applied these advanced techniques into new application scenarios. This Special Issue focuses on, but is not limited to, the most up-to-date optical metrology and their 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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
