About the Journal

The Journal of Optical Technology (JOT) publishes design details of a diversity of optical instruments, along with a strong section on computational optics useful to engineers, mathematicians, and physicists, as well as optical scientists. Issues of the English translation volume appear at the same time as the Russian language edition, Opticheskii Zhurnal.
