Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the development and application of advanced photonic technologies. It covers research in areas such as terahertz emission from spintronic materials, plasmon-enhanced optoelectronics with low-dimensional semiconductors, metasurfaces for light scattering control, polarization-resolved photodetectors, all-optical synaptic devices for neuromorphic computing, and stealth metasurfaces for broadband spectral compatibility. The journal also explores techniques for imaging through scattering media, physics-guided deep learning for image reconstruction, quantum information processing with indistinguishable photons, and the generation of specific light wavelengths like yellow lasers. Further topics include strain engineering in photonic platforms, topological photonics, ghost imaging with incoherent light sources, modulation of semiconductor quantum dot energy states, optical physically unclonable functions, multi-dimensional semantic communication, and analog programmable-photonic computation.
