The Optical Society (OSA) has announced the launch and publication of the first issue of its latest journal, Optical Materials Express. With a focus on the intersection of optics and materials science, Optical Materials Express joins OSA's diverse portfolio of 15 peer-reviewed optics journals. David Hagan, associate dean for academic programmes and professor of optics and physics at CREOL, The College of Optics & Photonics at the University of Central Florida, will serve as editor-in-chief of the journal.
Many features of Optical Materials Express are similar to OSA's other Express publications - Optics Express and Biomedical Optics Express. The journal offers rapid, online, and open-access publication. Additionally, the journal will offer the availability of free colour figures, movies, animations, and live reference links. HTML with MathML (XHTML) versions of each article, suitable for viewing on a range of electronic devices, are published along with the formatted PDF.
The inaugural issue includes a special section of invited papers on Chiral Optical Materials, edited by Thierry Verbiest of Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium, and Vincent Rodriguez of Institut des Sciences Moléculaires, France.
