Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Photonic bound states in the continuum are non-radiating optical states with energy embedded in the continuum spectrum of propagating waves. In practice, these states manifest themselves as resonances with giant-quality factors. In recent years, bound states in the continuum have attracted great attention due to their efficient light trapping and electromagnetic field enhancement. This Special Issue is expected to boost the development of the physics of bound states in the continuum and provide novel avenues for their applications. We expect that papers of this Special Issue will help to gain deeper insight into the physics of bound states in the continuum and related phenomena and extend the field of their potential applications in 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.
