Technical articles are one of the most popular and important features of our magazines — Photonics Spectra, BioPhotonics, and Vision Spectra — and a great way to share your company's technical expertise with our readers.

To tell us about a technical feature you would like to contribute, please send a 100-word abstract on the topic you would like to cover to [email protected], or use the submission form below. We will let you know where it may best fit into our editorial calendar.

Of course, if you already have an article written, you may send that for review. Please send only new, unpublished articles for our review. Articles must be exclusive to us, as we do not reprint articles from other sources.

If your article is selected for publication, we will give you the final deadline for all text and images at that time. Feature articles should be approximately 1800 words with four to five images and should be focused on technology issues and applications, not products. Generally, the deadline falls about two and a half months before the issue date (so an article for the December issue would be due around Sept. 15).


When you submit your personal contact information on this form, you agree that Photonics Media may use it to contact you with information related to your submission, and that you have read and agree to our Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions of Use.
