Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As one of the most important areas of disruptive science and technology, plasmonics and metamaterials have aroused tremendous attention and have also had a significant impact on various disciplines. Due to its first abnormal enhanced transmission in 1998 in the optical spectrum, plasmonics has since become one of the most important research aspects in modern optics and photonics. Particularly, the well-known “Spoof” plasmonics in the low-frequency band, including microwaves and Terahertz, has also aroused on-going attention and has become a fast-growing field since 2004.
Due to its many advantages such as sub-wavelength field confinement, enhanced near-field effect, enhanced light–matter interactions and arbitrary dispersion manipulations and so on, surface plasma polaritons (SPPs) and spoof SPP (SSP) provide an exciting platform to develop a series of functional devices and systems like novel antennas, filters, waveguides and circuits, sensors, splitters, active plasmonic devices, lenses and many more.
This Special Issue invites manuscripts that document the recent advances in “Plasmonics and Metamaterials”. We are pleased to invite you submit a manuscript discussing theory, experimental results and applications in wide spectrums ranging from optical to microwave bands.

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.
