nature-photonics
separate
Use when targeting Nature Photonics (Nat Photonics) or deciding whether an optics or photonics manuscript fits this high-impact, broad-significance Nature-family venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
When to use
- targeting Nature Photonics for fundamental or applied optics/photonics results
- evaluating photonics or laser physics manuscripts against Nature Photonics
- understanding Nature Photonics triage criteria and framing expectations
- re-routing papers returned without review within optics/photonics landscape
- assessing fit for fundamental light-matter interaction discoveries
- assessing fit for laser science breakthroughs
- assessing fit for photonic materials and structures
- assessing fit for quantum photonics and transformative photonic technologies
When not to use
- solar-energy photovoltaics and solar-fuel photocatalysis unless photonics advance is primary
- quantum-information-first framing (consider prx-quantum)
- simulation-only demonstrations of known phenomena
- optimization of existing designs without genuine breakthrough
