Description:

We are pleased to announce the launch of a special issue of Acta IMEKO dedicated to PhotoMet 2025, titled: “Shaping the Future of Photonic Metrology”. It aims to provide a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge developments in photonic metrology, offering fundamental insights and application-oriented studies that highlight the growing impact of photonic technologies on modern measurement science.

This special issue will bring together extended versions of selected contributions presented at IMEKO PhotoMet 2025, reflecting recent advances in photonics-based measurement technologies and their applications in biomedicine, industry, energy and environmental monitoring. It will include topics such as innovative photonic sensors, optical metrology techniques, the integration of photonics into digital manufacturing and the role of light-based technologies in ensuring accuracy and sustainability. Emphasis will be placed on interdisciplinary approaches and real-world applications that demonstrate how photonic metrology is driving transformation in sectors such as automotive, healthcare, energy, and smart manufacturing.

Submission of papers for this Special Issue is by invitation only and limited to selected papers from authors who have presented their work at IMEKO PhotoMet 2025.

 

Manuscript submission deadline: November 30, 2025

Online publication of accepted articles: Starting from June 2026 (rolling basis)
The complete Special Issue is expected to be finalised by summer 2026.
