About the Journal

Journal of Photonics and Quantum Technologies (JPQTECH) is an international, peer-reviewed, scholarly journal dedicated to publishing research at the forefront of photonics, quantum science, and quantum technologies. The journal serves as a platform for the dissemination of original research, reviews, perspectives, and other scholarly contributions that advance both the fundamental understanding and practical applications of light-based and quantum-enabled technologies.

JPQTECH welcomes interdisciplinary research spanning the broad spectrum of photonics and quantum technologies, including—but not limited to—quantum information science, quantum communication, quantum computing, quantum sensing and metrology, integrated and nonlinear photonics, optical materials and devices, nanophotonics, laser science, optical communications, biophotonics, and emerging quantum-enabled systems. The journal also encourages contributions that bridge fundamental scientific discoveries with technological innovation and industrial applications.

Recognising the rapidly evolving nature of these fields, JPQTECH aims to foster collaboration among physicists, engineers, materials scientists, computer scientists, mathematicians, and researchers from related disciplines. By providing a rigorous and timely peer-review process, the journal seeks to promote scientific excellence, encourage interdisciplinary dialogue, and facilitate the translation of cutting-edge research into impactful technologies.

In addition to original research articles, JPQTECH publishes review articles, perspectives, tutorials, technical notes, and invited commentaries that provide insight into emerging research directions, technological developments, policy considerations, and educational initiatives relevant to the photonics and quantum technology communities.

JPQTECH invites contributions in the following (but not limited to) areas:

Quantum Foundations and Information: Theoretical and experimental work on quantum computation (e.g., superconducting, trapped-ion, photonic qubits), quantum communication, quantum cryptography (QKD), and quantum

Photonics Science and Technology: Advanced research in lasers, specialty optical fibers, integrated and silicon photonics, nanophotonics, biophotonics, plasmonics, and optical sensors.

Quantum Optics and Light-Matter Interaction: Studies on non-classical states of light (e.g., squeezed states), cavity QED, single-photon sources and detectors, and strong-coupling phenomena.

Quantum and Photonic Materials: Development and characterization of novel materials including 2D materials (e.g., graphene), perovskites, metamaterials, and quantum dots for quantum and photonic applications.

Emerging Applications: Integrated works demonstrating the use of quantum and photonic principles in novel devices for computing, healthcare, telecommunications, and environmental sensing.
