CrossCheck Deposited

CrossCheck is a multi-publisher initiative to screen published and submitted content for originality. Optica Publishing Group uses the iThenticate software to detect instances of overlapping and similar text in submitted manuscripts. Wherever you see the "CrossCheck Deposited" or "CrossCheck Depositor" logos, you can be reassured that the publisher whose content you are reading is committed to actively combating plagiarism and publishing original research.
