High-Efficiency Microcavity Optical Resonances and Modes—Photonic Micro-Ring Resonators and Nano-Scale Plasmonic/Dielective Cells/Antennas

Dear Colleagues,

With research and applications of modern optical information and communications, various microcavity structures are emerging and being adopted based on novel physical effects such as strong coupling, negative refraction diffraction, and abrupt phase change surfaces. These structures typically include surface lattices and nanoscale cells, forming a new material/structure concept of metasurfaces. As a consequence, some new and/or improved physical laws are discovered such as the new Huygens principle, generalized Snell’s and Fresnel’s laws resulting in the simultaneous occurrence of positive and negative refraction and reflection, and then a variety of novel/powerful physically functional devices being developed and applied in practical industrial systems. This Special Issue will accept all scientific contributions involved with the above topics and subjects.

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-anonymized 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.
