Journal Title

OPT COMMUN

ISSN / eISSN

0030-4018

Aims and Scope

Optics Communications invites original and timely contributions containing new results in various fields of optics and photonics. The journal considers theoretical and experimental research in areas ranging from the fundamental properties of light to technological applications. Topics covered include classical and quantum optics, optical physics and light-matter interactions, lasers, imaging, guided-wave optics and optical information processing. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers concentrating on mathematical and computational issues, with limited connection to optics, are not suitable for publication in the Journal. Similarly, small technical advances, or papers concerned only with engineering applications or issues of materials science fall outside the journal scope.

Verified Reviews

Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.

Posted on May 31, 2021, it took about a week to enter the "under review" status, and then there was no progress. During this period, two reminder emails were sent to urge the review process. On August 27, 2021, the revision comments were received, with a total of two reviewers and their comments were quite fair. After making the revisions, it was returned on September 8, but it has been dragging on without a decision. Finally, on September 29, it was accepted, taking a total of four months, which is quite a long time.

2021-10-04

Submitted on August 7th, the first review took one and a half months. There were major revisions with five reviewers. Three weeks later, it was resubmitted and the second review took another one and a half months. There were minor revisions and one week later it was resubmitted again, and the next day it was accepted directly. The editor was very responsible, and the reviewers were also good. The only problem was that it was too slow. It was submitted in August and accepted at the end of December.
