Journal of the Optical Society of Korea

Aims & Scope

Current Optics and Photonics is the full-open-access, peer-reviewed journal published in English by the Optical Society of Korea (OSK).

Current Optics and Photonics is dedicated to publish papers reporting recent advances and state-of-the-art research and development results in all aspects of optical science and technology.

Current Optics and Photonics is published bi-monthly with six issues a year (February, April, June, August, October, and December).

Current Optics and Photonics considers original research articles, short communications, invited research articles, and invited review articles.

Original contributions may be categorized into nine main topics: (1) Optical Science, (2) Optical Technology, (3) Digital Holography and Information Optics, (4) Quantum Electronics, (5) Photonics, (6) Biophotonics, (7) Displays, (8) Quantum Optics and Quantum Information, and (9) Lithography/Optical Materials.

Current Optics and Photonics started in February 2017, maintaining the tradition of the Journal of the Optical Society of Korea (JOSK) that had been published as one of the official journals of the OSK since 1997.
