《光學材料快報》（OMEX），OSA的開放訪問、快速評論雜志，主要強調傳統和新型光學材料的進展，它們的特性、理論和建模、光學和光子學的合成和制造方法；這些材料如何促進新的光學行為；以及它們是如何產生新的或改進的光學設備的。該雜志涵蓋了一系列的主題，包括但不限于：人工工程光學結構生物材料光學探測器材料光存儲介質集成光學材料非線性光學材料激光材料超材料納米材料有機物和聚合物軟性材料紅外材料光纖材料混合技術量子光子學材料《光學材料快報》考慮了原始研究文章、專題論文貢獻、邀請評論和對已發表文章的評論。期刊還偶爾發表專家和該領域思想領袖就當前或新興話題領域發表簡短、及時的意見文章，這些領域正在產生重大興趣。

Optical Materials Express (OMEx), OSA's open-access, rapid-review journal, primarily emphasizes advances in both conventional and novel optical materials, their properties, theory and modeling, synthesis and fabrication approaches for optics and photonics; how such materials contribute to novel optical behavior; and how they enable new or improved optical devices. The journal covers a full range of topics, including, but not limited to:Artificially engineered optical structuresBiomaterialsOptical detector materialsOptical storage mediaMaterials for integrated opticsNonlinear optical materialsLaser materialsMetamaterialsNanomaterialsOrganics and polymersSoft materialsIR materialsMaterials for fiber opticsHybrid technologiesMaterials for quantum photonicsOptical Materials Express considers original research articles, feature issue contributions, invited reviews, and comments on published articles. The Journal also publishes occasional short, timely opinion articles from experts and thought-leaders in the field on current or emerging topic areas that are generating significant interest.
