Aims and Scope
The Journal covers the entire field of infrared physics and technology: theory, experiment, application, devices and instrumentation. Infrared' is defined as covering the near, mid and far infrared (terahertz) regions from 0.75um (750nm) to 1mm (300GHz.) Submissions in the 300GHz to 100GHz region may be accepted at the editors discretion if their content is relevant to shorter wavelengths. Submissions must be primarily concerned with and directly relevant to this spectral region.

Its core topics can be summarized as the generation, propagation and detection, of infrared radiation; the associated optics, materials and devices; and its use in all fields of science, industry, engineering and medicine.

Infrared techniques occur in many different fields, notably spectroscopy and interferometry; material characterization and processing; atmospheric physics, astronomy and space research. Scientific aspects include lasers, quantum optics, quantum electronics, image processing and semiconductor physics. Some important applications are medical diagnostics and treatment, industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.

Verified Reviews

Share my unfortunate timeline:
2022.1.22 Submit
2022.5.9 Major Review - Lasted for over three months, welcomed major revisions, and received positive feedback from reviewers.
2022.5.19 Resubmit - Carefully revised and resubmitted.
2022.8.2 Major Review - Unfortunate events began, the first group of reviewers did not accept, and the editor changed twice for review.
2022.8.6 Resubmit - Carefully revised and resubmitted.
2022.9.20 Major Review - Lost hope as one reviewer did not accept the review, and another reviewer was changed. It was the first time I experienced three major revisions for an article.
2022.10.26 Resubmit - Almost forgot about the deadline for major revisions, but managed to submit the carefully revised version.
2022.11.26 Accept - Finally accepted... tears of relief.

Maybe I'm an exception, as I've seen some comments from others who had a faster process. Thankfully, the journal's quality is good.
Hope this can help everyone.

I have submitted two papers in the field of object detection. The first one went pretty quickly, with the first review taking 45 days and the second review taking one month. However, the second paper was really slow! The first review took 5 months, and the second review took one month.

Timeline for the first paper:
- Submitted on January 7, 2019
- Sent to the editor on January 8, 2019
- Under review on January 9, 2019
- Major revisions requested on March 25, 2019 (first review took 45 days)
- Minor revisions requested on April 25, 2019 (second review took 15 days)
- Accepted on May 14, 2019

Timeline for the second paper:
- Submitted on September 23, 2020
- Sent to the editor on September 25, 2020
- Under review on September 28, 2020
- Major revisions requested on March 23, 2021 (first review took 6 months!!)
- Under review again on May 23, 2021 (second review took 40 days)
- Accepted on July 9, 2021
