OSA will launch a new publication, Advances in Optics and Photonics, an online quarterly journal of invited reviews and tutorials, on January 2008. Bahaa E. A. Saleh will be the first editor.
Designed to capture the most significant advances in optics and photonics, AOP will include both traditional long review articles and peer-reviewed tutorials. Submissions of long reviews and tutorials are invited only. Tutorials will feature interactive components like animation and video to maximize their reach. Each article will have navigational links and external reference-linking for easy sourcing and enhanced learning. Authors will enjoy timely publication as each article is published online immediately upon completion.
OSA will provide free introductory access to the journal for a limited time following its launch. AOP tutorials will remain open access.
