This journal establishes a dedicated channel for physicists, material scientists, chemists, engineers and computer
scientists who are interested in photonic crystals and photonic band gaps. The Journal will help shed light on the latest developments
in this growing field of science that will see the emergence of faster telecommunications and ultimately computers that use light instead
of electrons to connect components. The Journal features mainly original research work in experiment, theory and applications.
The
journal covers the following areas of research: physics, chemistry, engineering optoelectronics and computers science related to applications
in photonic crystals and photonic band gaps.
Papers suitable for publication in this journal cover topics such as
• Theory
of photonic crystals and related micro- and nanophotonic materials•Investigation and characterization of photonic crystal properties
including optical nonlinearities, photonic band gap effects, spontaneous emission, etc.• Fabrication of photonic structures and
devices using various methods, including lithography, self-assembly, holography, etc.• Subwavelength optics of structured materials
• Metallic and metallo-dielectric photonic structures• Structures for Terahertz optics • Plasmonics• Metamaterials
and left-handed metamaterials•Photonic crystal fibers and "holey" fibers• Micro- and nanophotonic devices such as optical
waveguides, switches, lasers, and other components of optical integrated circuits, • Integration of photonic crystals• Micro-optical-electro-mechanical-systems
(MOEMS)• Optical microcavities and photonic "dots"• Novel approaches to micro- and nanophotonics• Critical assessment
of new application fields (light sources, lasers, biophotonics, detectors, optical components, atom and molecule confinement)
