Aims & Scope

Opto-Electronics Review is peer-reviewed and quarterly published by the Polish Academy of Sciences (PAN) and the Association of Polish Electrical Engineers (SEP) in electronic version. It covers the whole field of theory, experimental techniques, and instrumentation and brings together, within one journal, contributions from a wide range of disciplines. The scope of the published papers includes any aspect of scientific, technological, technical and industrial works concerning generation, transmission, transformation, detection and application of light and other forms of radiative energy whose quantum unit is photon. Papers covering novel topics extending the frontiers in optoelectronics or photonics are very encouraged. It has been established for the publication of high quality original papers from the following fields: Optical Design and Applications, Image Processing Metamaterials, Optoelectronic Materials, Micro-Opto-Electro-Mechanical Systems, Infrared Physics and Technology, Modelling of Optoelectronic Devices, Semiconductor Lasers Technology and Fabrication of Optoelectronic Devices, Photonic Crystals, Laser Physics, Technology and Applications, Optical Sensors and Applications, Photovoltaics, Biomedical Optics and Photonics
