Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Polarimetric imaging is essential to a wide range of applications as it uncovers features invisible to traditional imaging sensors. Recent advances in device physics and nanofabrication have greatly improved the compactness and performance of polarimetric detectors and polarimetric imaging systems. As such, these systems are providing innovative solutions to industrial imaging, biomedical imaging, and defense. Photonics, an open access journal from MDPI, welcomes submissions for the Special Issue, “Advances in Polarimetric Imaging: Innovations and Applications”. We welcome original research articles, reviews, and perspectives addressing various aspects of the design and fabrication of polarimetric imaging sensors and their applications. The topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Polarimetric imaging and its applications;
- Polarization/Muller matrix microscopy and its applications;
- Micro/nanofabrication;
- Metasurfaces;
- Optoelectronic materials and devices for polarization sensing.

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.
