SPIE Journals

SPIE journals publish peer-reviewed articles on applied research in optics and photonics, including optical engineering, electronic imaging, biomedical optics, microlithography, remote sensing, and nanophotonics. All SPIE journals are available through the SPIE Digital Library on a subscription basis. SPIE also publishes open-access articles on important emerging technology areas in SPIE Letters and SPIE Reviews. E-First rapid online publishing and extensive CrossRef linking features allow researchers to stay current in their fields and easily perform in-depth online research. SPIE journal terms of usage.
Optical Engineering

The flagship monthly journal of SPIE, Optical Engineering (OE) publishes peer-reviewed papers reporting on research and development in all areas of optics, photonics, and imaging science and engineering.

Journal of Biomedical Optics

The Journal of Biomedical Optics (JBO) is published bimonthly and contains peer-reviewed papers on the use of modern optical technology for improved health care and research.

Journal of Electronic Imaging

The Journal of Electronic Imaging (JEI), copublished quarterly with the Society for Imaging Science and Technology, publishes peer-reviewed papers that cover research and applications in all areas of electronic imaging science and technology. 

Journal of Micro/Nanolithography, MEMS, and MOEMS

The Journal of Micro/Nanolithography, MEMS, and MOEMS (JM3) is published quarterly and contains peer-reviewed papers on the development of lithographic, fabrication, packaging, and integration technologies necessary to address the needs of the electronics, micro-optoelectromechanical systems, and photonics industries.

Journal of Applied Remote Sensing

The Journal of Applied Remote Sensing (JARS) is an online-only, peer-reviewed journal that covers remote sensing research and applications.

Journal of Nanophotonics
The Journal of Nanophotonics (JNP) is an online-only, peer-reviewed journal focusing on the fabrication and application of nanostructures that facilitate the generation, propagation, manipulation, and detection of light from the infrared to the ultraviolet regimes.
Journal of Photonics for Energy
The Journal of Photonics for Energy (JPE) is a new e-journal that covers fundamental and applied research areas focused on the applications of photonics for renewable energy harvesting, conversion, storage, distribution, monitoring, consumption, and efficient usage.
SPIE Reviews

SPIE Reviews is an open-access, peer-reviewed, online journal that publishes invited review articles covering the state of the art of emerging and rapidly evolving optics and photonics technologies and their applications.
