Applied Optics Feature Announcement
Digital Holography and 3-D Imaging: Interactive Science Publishing
Submission Deadline: 1 July 2009
This feature issue, to be published in the Information Processing Division of Applied Optics, will be in its third installment since its inception two years ago. The previous two issues were published after the conclusion of each Digital Holography and 3-D Imaging topical meeting. The topical meeting has been providing a forum for disseminating the science and technology of holographic interferometry for deformation or contour measurement, new technologies for phase unwrapping, 3-D optical remote sensing, 3-D holographic microscopy, 3-D optical image processing, 3-D display, and digital holography for life science or nanophotonics applications. Again, this feature issue will include a representative selection of topics that will be presented at the Digital Holography and 3-D Imaging topical meeting, to be held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, April 2009.
One of the key elements of the feature issue is that it will include a new key feature: Interactive Science Publishing (ISP)-based publications along with regular papers. Therefore, the feature issue will serve as a pilot issue featuring ISP in Applied Optics. The editors will invite ISP-based review and/or research papers. All submitted papers, including invited papers, will undergo peer review under the guidelines of Applied Optics.:
Topics to be considered are as follows:
- Digital holography theory and systems
- Diffractive optics
- Optical data storage
- Phase unwrapping and phase retrieval
- Computer-generated holograms
- Spatial light modulators for holography
- Incoherent digital holography
- Holographic optical elements
- 2-D and 3-D pattern recognition
- Optical correlators
- 3-D imaging and processing
- 3-D display
- Stereo matching and stereoscopic cameras
- 2-D and 3-D content conversion
- Shape and deformation measurement
- Polarization analysis
- Holographic imaging and microscopy
- Holographic nanofabrication methods
- Holographic optical micromanipulation
Manuscripts must be prepared according to the usual standards for submission to Applied Optics; see the Information for Contributors in any printed issue or the OSA Style Guide: http://www.opticsinfobase.org/ao/submit/style/jrnls_style.cfm. Manuscripts must also be uploaded through OSA's electronic submission system: http://www.opticsinfobase.org/ao/journal/ao/author.cfm. All submissions must be submitted to the Information Processing Division. Please specify that the manuscript is for the Digital Holography feature (choose from the feature issue drop-down menu).
