Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Quantum high-precision measurement leverages quantum mechanics to achieve remarkable accuracy in measuring physical quantities. This field exploits quantum phenomena such as superposition, entanglement, and interference to develop tools exceeding classical systems' limits. It plays a vital role in advancing physics by enabling precise tests of theories such as general relativity. In practical terms, it enhances technologies such as atomic clocks for GPS and quantum sensors used in medical imaging and geophysical exploration. Additionally, it is pivotal for quantum computing and communication, providing the precision to manipulate and measure quantum states. As the boundaries of accuracy expand, this field promises to drive innovation, scientific breakthroughs, and advancements in various domains, shaping the future of technology and exploration.

We invite you write an article for our Special Issue: Quantum High-Precision Measurement. It will present recent advances in this field.

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but not limited to) the following: mass, magnetic field, electric field sensing, etc.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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.
