Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, optical resonances supported by subwavelength nanostructures have received extensive attention, particularly because their sharp spectral feature and extraordinary field enhancement allow them to be used widely in high-performance nano-optical devices, such as optical switches, sensors, modulators, filters and lasers; they can also be used for controlling harmonic generation and realizing quantum light sources. Efforts have been undertaken to further explore the physical mechanism of resonators, develop new resonance (such as BICs, anapole modes, and toroidal dipole resonances), realize high-Q resonators, and develop high-performance nanodevices, all of which are of great significance in nanophotonics.
In this context, we are pleased to announce the launch of this Special Issue which aims to focus on the theoretical and experimental advancements made in the field of resonant nanophotonics and nanodevices. We will accept submissions of both original research articles and reviews. Some potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Bound states in the continuum in nanoparticles or metasurfaces;
- Nanophotonics and nanodevices based on phase change materials;
- Resonant nanophotonics for lasers, modulators, energy conversion, etc.;
- Enhanced light-matter interaction in transition metal dichalcogenides;
- Chiral nanodevices based on resonance;
- Nonlinear optics on nanodevices；
- Optical manipulation based on resonant nanophotonics;
- Surface plasmon resonance sensors;
- Nanofabrication techniques for nanophotonics;
- Integrated nanophotonics.

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.
