Optics Communications
Optics Communications considers only original and timely contributions containing new results in various fields of modern optics. Manuscripts may discuss fundamental or applied issues, and should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers devoted, for the most part, to mathematical and computational issues, with limited direct connection to current trends of optics research, are generally not suitable for publication in the Journal. Similarly, small technical advances, or papers concerned only with engineering applications or issues of materials science may not be considered favourably.The Fast Track section of Optics Communications is the venue for very rapid publication of short communications on significant developments in the various fields of modern optics. The goal is to offer the broad modern optics community quick and immediate access to recently completed work in research areas that are rapidly developing and in which there are developments with great potential impact.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
