Applied Optics is OSA's most widely read journal, a must for everyone in the optics field. Published three times each month, Applied Optics reports significant optics applications from optical testing and instrumentation to medical optics...from holography to optical neural networks...from lidar and remote sensing to laser materials processing. Each issue contains content from three divisions of editorial scope: Optical Technology; Information Processing; and Lasers, Photonics, and Environmental Optics. Authors in these fields are encouraged to submit their manuscripts to Applied Optics for quality, peer-reviewed, widely distributed publication.
OSA is pleased to offer Applied Spectroscopy (ISSN: 0003-7028) through the Optics InfoBase. New Applied Spectroscopy material is also now available in the OSA#!#!s Virtual Journal for Biomedical Optics. Please go to the VJBO website to find out more. Applied Spectroscopy is an internationally recognized, peer-reviewed journal covering applications in analytical chemistry, materials science, biotechnology, and chemical characterization. It is published by the Society for Applied Spectroscopy and available from SAS and OSA.
Chinese Optics Letters (COL), considered to be one of the most important journals in optics in China, has been published since January 2003. Before 2003, this journal is available as the Chinese Journal of Laser B, which is also a core journal in the fields of lasers and optics. The first issue of this journal appeared in 1982.COL is published monthly by the Chinese Optics Letters Manuscript Office and is sponsored by the Chinese Optical Society, undertaken by the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and is distributed by the Optical Society of America outside of the Chinese mainland.COL is one of the leading Chinese journals for optics in China. The purpose of COL is to promote the generation, application, and archiving of knowledge in optics and to disseminate it worldwide. Its subject coverage includes Fiber Optics and Optical Communications, Lasers and Laser Optics, Nonlinear Optics, Image Processing, Instrumentation, Measurement and Metrology, Integrated Optics, Materials, Quantum Optics, and Ultrafast Optics.COL reports on the latest developments and achievements in all fields of optics. The average time to publication from receipt of the paper to publication is about six months.COL has reported a large number of creative, important, and exciting results. Most of the papers published in COL are indexed by the main indexing systems of the world such as SCI-E, EI, and CA. COL is also the core source periodical of the Chinese Science Citation Database and the Chinese Academic Journal Comprehensive Evaluation Database.
The Journal of Near Infrared Spectroscopy (JNIRS) aims to publish original research papers, short communications, review articles and letters concerned with near infrared spectroscopy and technology, its application, new instrumentation and the use of chemometric and data handling techniques within NIR. JNIRS will accept contributions from all areas of applications where near infrared spectroscopy is in use.
he Journal of Optical Technology is an English-language translation of the journal Opticheskii Zhurnal, which originates at the S.I. Vavilov Optical Institute (Tuchkov Lane 1, 199034 St. Petersburg, Russia; tel. 812-328-3986).This monthly publication includes design details of a diversity of optical instruments, along with a strong section on computational optics useful to engineers, mathematicians, and physicists, as well as optical scientists. Issues of the translation volume appear at the same time as the Russian-language edition.
The Journal of the Optical Society of America A (JOSA A) is devoted to developments in any field of classical optics, image science, and vision. JOSA A includes original peer-reviewed papers on such topics as atmospheric optics, image processing, scattering and coherence theory, machine vision, statistical optics, diffraction and gratings, polarization, thin films, signal processing, color, physiological optics, clinical vision, and visual optics.
The Journal of the Optical Society of America B (JOSA B) is a general optics research journal that complements JOSA A. It emphasizes research on the fundamentals of the interaction of radiation with matter such as quantum optics, nonlinear optics, and laser physics. It includes such topical areas as atom optics and cold atoms, integrated and fiber optics, metamaterials, nanophotonics, photonic crystals, photorefractive optics and holography, physics of optical materials, spectroscopy, THz optics, ultrafast phenomena, and other related subjects.
