For additional guidelines on style see the online Author section of any OSA journal. \section{Page Layout and Length} Paper size for electronic submissions should be U.S. Letter. Recommended page length for manuscripts varies with each journal. Note that \textit{Optics Letters} (OL) has a strict limit of three printed, i.e.---final typeset---pages. Mandatory page charges or higher publication fees apply to papers above each journal's length limit. \section{Software} \subsection{Package Files} The package file \texttt{osajnl.sty} calls up \texttt{cite.sty} (for citations; replaces \texttt{overcite.sty}), \texttt{graphicx.sty}, and \texttt{geometry.sty} (page layout). Additional package files should be used when needed (e.g., \texttt{hyperref.sty}, as used in this document). Use of nonstandard or custom package files is discouraged; however, if such files are essential, they should be included with the manuscript submission. \subsection{\LaTeX{} and REV\TeX} Most versions of \LaTeXe{} available as freeware, shareware, or commercially will run the OSA \LaTeX{} files correctly. Authors who choose to use REV\TeX{} should obtain the latest REV\TeX{}4 package from the American Physical Society (\url{http://www.aps.org}) or from the Comprehensive \TeX{} Archive Network (CTAN; \href{http://www.ctan.org}{http://www.ctan.org}) and become familiar with REV\TeX{}4's special features. Note that certain packages, such as \verb+natbib+, that may be required for proper operation of REV\TeX{} are not necessarily included in the standard REV\TeX{}4 distribution and should be obtained separately. \subsection{Compressing Files for Submission} Authors submitting \LaTeX{} or REV\TeX{} files should create a tarred, gzipped archive of their \texttt{.tex} file and all figures (which should be in EPS digital format). All files must be referenced at the root level (e.g., file {\tt OT00000F1.eps}, not \verb+\EPSDIR\OT00000F1.eps+). Authors who submit a \LaTeX{} or REV\TeX{} file with no figures may submit an ASCII text file without compression or archiving. \subsection{REV\TeX{} and \LaTeX{} Support} The subfile \texttt{osajnl.rtx} is REV\TeX{}4 compliant. REV\TeX{} and \LaTeX{} commands for title, author, address, and e-mail are supported. The \verb+\pacs{}+ command has been made an alias of \verb+\ocis{}+; \verb+\affiliation{}+, an alias of \verb+\address{}+. With little effort, a manuscript prepared in the REV\TeX{}4 substyle for another society's journal can be converted to OSA style. The style commands that may be used at the start of a manuscript for submission to JOSA A, JOSA B, \textit{Applied Optics}, \textit{Optics Letters}, and JON are \begin{verbatim} \documentclass[osajnl,preprint,showpacs]{revtex4} %%REVTeX 4.0 or \documentclass[12pt]{article} %%LaTeX 2e \usepackage{osajnl} \end{verbatim} Note that a \LaTeX{} package for \href{http://www.opticsexpress.org}{\textit{Optics Express}} should be obtained separately. \section{Main Text} \subsection{Typographical Style} Margins and type size will be set by the OSA REV\TeX{} or \LaTeX{} commands for title, author names and addresses, abstract, references, captions, and so on. Use of custom macros and style files is discouraged. \subsection{Title} Only the first letter in the title is capitalized, except for proper names and abbreviations (note that abbreviations should be spelled out in most cases in manuscript and section titles). Place the title within the braces of the \verb+\title{}+ command. \subsection{Author Names and Affiliations} See the title page in this document for guidelines on presenting authors and their affiliations. OSA now requires all authors to be listed, followed by all affiliations with superscript reference numbers matching authors to their addresses. The superscript references can be set up manually (e.g., with \verb+${1,2}$+) or automatically with REV\TeX{}4's \texttt{superscriptaddress} class option (see the main REV\TeX{}4 documentation at www.aps.org or in your \LaTeX{} system documents.) Affiliations should follow the format division, organization, and address---and complete postal information should be given. Abbreviations should not be used. United States addresses should end with ``, USA.'' \subsection{Abstract} Authors should place the abstract between the following commands to achieve the correct format: \ \verb+\begin{abstract}+ and \verb+\end{abstract}+. The abstract should be limited to approximately 100 words. It should be an explicit summary of the paper that states the problem, the methods used, and the major results and conclusions. If another publication author is referenced in the abstract, abbreviated information (e.g., journal, volume number, first page, year) must be given in the abstract itself, without a reference number. (The item referenced in the abstract should be the first cited reference in the body.) \subsection{OCIS Subject Classification} Between two and six Optics Classification and Indexing Scheme (OCIS) subject classifications should be placed at the end of the abstract with the \verb+\ocis{}+ command. OCIS codes can be found at \href{http://www.opticsinfobase.org/submit/ocis/}{http://www.opticsinfobase.org/submit/ocis/}. \subsection{Mathematical and Scientific Notation} \subsubsection{Displayed Equations} Equations should be centered. Equation numbers should appear at the right-hand margin, in parentheses: \begin{equation} H = \frac{1}{2m}(p_x^2 + p_y^2) + \frac{1}{2} M{\Omega}^2 (x^2 + y^2) + \omega (xp_y - yp_x). \end{equation} All equations should be numbered in the order in which they appear and should be referenced from within the main text as Eq. (1), Eq. (2), and so on. \begin{eqnarray} I_{(z, \tau)} & = & \frac{1}{2} \left[ \left| A \left(\tau - \frac{\delta \tau}{2}z \right) \right|^2 + \frac{1}{2} \left| A \left( \tau + \frac{\delta \tau}{2}z \right) \right|^2 + 2A \left( \tau - \frac{\delta \tau}{2}z \right) A \left( \tau + \frac{\delta \tau}{2}z \right) \right. \nonumber \\ & & \left. \times \cos \left( \pi \frac{z}{L_c} \right) \right] \int _{-\infty}^{+\infty}\int _{-\infty}^{+\infty} {\psi_1}^2(x,y){\rm d}x{\rm d}y \nonumber \\ & & + \frac{1}{2} \left[ \left| A \left( \tau - \frac{\delta \tau}{2}z \right) \right| ^2 + \frac{1}{2} \left| A \left( \tau + \frac{\delta \tau}{2}z \right) \right| ^2 - 2A \left( \tau - \frac{\delta \tau}{2}z \right) A \left( \tau + \frac{\delta \tau}{2}z \right) \right. \nonumber \\ & & \left. \times \cos \left( \pi \frac{z}{L_c} \right) \right] \int _{-\infty}^{+\infty}\int _{-\infty}^{+\infty} {\psi_2}^2(x,y){\rm d}x{\rm d}y. \end{eqnarray} \subsubsection{In-Line Math} To help with conversion, place all math in a proper math environment. For example, expression \mbox{$3\times 4 = 12$} should be set this way, \texttt{\$3$\backslash$times 4=12\$}, not this way, \texttt{3 \$$\backslash$times\$4=12}. Simple fractions in in-line math should use parentheses when necessary to avoid ambiguity, for example, to distinguish between $1/(n-1)$ and $1/n-1$. Exceptions to this are the proper fractions such as $\frac{1}{2}$, which are better left in this form. Summations and integrals that appear within text such as $\frac{1}{2}{\Sigma } _{n=1}^{n=\infty} (n^2 - 2n)^{-1}$ should have limits placed to the right of the symbol to reduce white space. \subsubsection{General Guidelines on Notation} Notation must be legible, clear, compact, and consistent with standard usage. In general, acronyms should be defined at first use. Adherence to the following guidelines will greatly assist the production process: \paragraph*{\bf Radical Signs.} When possible, avoid oversized radical signs by using the notation of a superscript $1/2$. For example, change $\sqrt{(a + b)(a - c)}$ to $[(a + b)(a - c)]^{1/2}$. \paragraph*{\bf Exponentials.} Avoid tiny superscripts of exponential $e$ (e.g., $e^{jkl})$ by using the alternative \verb+\exp+ notation, $\exp(jkl)$. \paragraph*{\bf Variables and Vectors.} Set single-letter variables in italics $(k)$. Set three-vectors in boldface $(\mathbf{k})$. Functions, derivative ``d,'' abbreviations, and multiletter identifiers should be set in roman (plain) type ($\alpha \cos, \int\!\dots{\rm d}x, k^{\rm out}$). \paragraph*{\bf Multiplication.} In general, close up multiplied terms $(p_yp_x)$; use $\times$ if multiplication sign is essential $(2 \times 10^{-2})$ or for continuation in displayed equations [see Eq. (2) above]. Use raised dot only for scalar product $(\mathbf{k \cdot k})$. \paragraph*{\bf Fences.} For simple bracketing the usual order of parentheses and brackets is $\{ \, [ \, ( \, \{ \, [ \, ( \, | \, ) \, ] \, \} \, ) \, ] \, \}$. \paragraph*{\bf Bit and Byte.} The standard abbreviations for bit and byte are b and B, respectively. To avoid confusion, these units should be spelled out in most cases (1 bit, 20 GByte). \paragraph*{\bf Metric System.} The metric system is used in OSA journals. If nonmetric units are essential (e.g., for parts specifications), conversion should be given at first mention: ``. . . a $\frac{1}{4}$\,-in. bolt (1 in. = 2.54 cm).'' \subsection{Acknowledgments} Acknowledgments, if included, should appear at the end of the document, just before the references. The number of a grant or contract should be omitted unless its inclusion is required by the agency supporting the research. Use the command \verb+\section*{Acknowledgments}+ to create a nonnumbered section heading. \section{References} \subsection{Formatting Citations} \textbf{Note that OSA journals now use bracketed style [1] for citation callouts.} Use of \verb+\cite{}+ will create bracketed reference callouts, which are now OSA style, when appropriate REV\TeX{} and \LaTeX{} packages are used (\texttt{natbib} and \texttt{cite}, respectively). References can also be hard coded with [1]. Two references [2,3] should be included together, separated by a comma, and three or more consecutive references should be indicated by the bounding numbers and a dash [1--4]. When on-line reference numbers are essential (e.g., see [1]), it is not necessary to use the words ``Ref." or ``Refs.'' References should be numbered consecutively in the order in which they are first referenced in the body of the paper. \subsection{Formatting Reference Items} Each source must have its own reference number. Footnotes (notes at the bottom of text pages) are not used in OSA journals. \subsection{\TeX{} and Bib\TeX} Authors must use the standard REV\TeX{}4 or \LaTeXe{} commands for references and citations. References must be contained within the \texttt{.tex} file, not a separate Bib\TeX{} file. \paragraph{Bib\TeX.} Bib\TeX{} may be used to create a file containing the references, whose contents (i.e., contents of \texttt{.bbl} file) can then be pasted into the bibliography section of the \texttt{.tex} file. A Bib\TeX{} style file, \texttt{osajnl.bst}, is provided. The commands \verb+\begin{thebibliography}{}+ and \verb+\end{thebibliography}+ format the section according to standard style, showing the title {\bf References}. Use the \verb+\bibitem{label}+ command to start each reference. \subsection*{Journal paper} 1. C. van Trigt, ``Visual system-response functions and estimating reflectance,'' J. Opt. Soc. Am.

Figure captions should be listed on one or more pages, after the References and before the figure images. The abbreviation ``Fig.'' for figure should appear first followed by the figure number and a period. For electronic submissions all art work must be in digital form, placed in the electronic document with the standard graphics commands. Tables, figure captions, and figures should not appear in the body of the manuscript but on separate pages at the back. With REV\TeX{}4, figures and tables will float to the end of the document, overriding any float options specified. The caption accompanying the figure should include the figure file name. The \verb+\caption{}+ command will produce the required results. The following is sample code that may be used for setting figures, although any standard commands are acceptable: \begin{verbatim} \begin{figure}[t] \centerline{\includegraphics{OT10000F1.eps}} \caption{Multipanel figure assembled into one EPS file with proper arrangement and labeling. OT10000F1.eps.} \end{figure} \end{verbatim} No more than one figure should appear on a manuscript page, except in the case of multipart figures, which should be assembled into a single file, if possible, and arranged and labeled as shown below. Figure file names should indicate figure sequence, e.g., \texttt{Smith-f1.eps}. \subsection{Tables} Tables must be numbered and appear on separate pages. Separate, self-contained parts should be formatted as separate tables, not, e.g., Table 1(a), Table 1(b). Table titles---which should be brief---must be placed above the table, with the \verb+\caption{}+ command. Detailed explanations or table footnotes should appear directly beneath the table. Tables should use horizontal rules to delimit the top and the bottom of the table and column headings. In general, internal rules (lines) should not be used. \section{Conclusion} After the manuscript is proofread, the \texttt{.tex} file and figures should be tarred and gzipped. See the Author page of each online journal site for submission instructions (a list of journal sites is available at www.opticsinfobase.org. Authors should feel free to contact OSA staff for assistance. %% Code for appendices and equation numbers %\appendix %\section*{Appendix A: Sample} %\setcounter{equation}{0} %\renewcommand{\theequation}{A{\arabic{equation}}} %\begin{equation} a+b=c. %\end{equation} %\section*{Appendix B: Sample} %\setcounter{equation}{0} %\renewcommand{\theequation}{B{\arabic{equation}}} %change B as needed %\begin{equation} %x-y=z. %\end{equation} %% Table \begin{table}[h] {\bf \caption{Standard Abbreviations for 31 Commonly Cited Journals$^a$}}\begin{center} \begin{tabular}{lp{2.3in}lp{1.5in}}\hline Macro & Abbreviation & Macro & Abbreviation \\ \hline \verb+\ao+ & Appl.\ Opt.\ & \verb+\nat+ & Nature (London) \\ \verb+\ap+ & Appl.\ Phys.\ & \verb+\oc+ & Opt.\ Commun.\ \\ \verb+\apl+ & Appl.\ Phys.\ Lett.\ & \verb+\opex+ & Opt.\ Express \\ \verb+\apj+ & Astrophys.\ J.\ & \verb+\ol+ & Opt.\ Lett.\ \\ \verb+\bell+ & Bell Syst.\ Tech.\ J.\ & \verb+\pl+ & Phys.\ Lett.\ \\ \verb+\jqe+ & IEEE J.\ Quantum Electron.\ & \verb+\pra+ & Phys.\ Rev.\ A \\ \verb+\assp+ & IEEE Trans.\ Acoust.\ Speech Signal Process.\ & \verb+\prb+ & Phys.\ Rev.\ B \\ \verb+\aprop+ & IEEE Trans.\ Antennas Propag.\ & \verb+\prc+ & Phys.\ Rev.\ C \\ \verb+\mtt+ & IEEE Trans.\ Microwave Theory Tech.\ & \verb+\prd+ & Phys.\ Rev.\ D \\ \verb+\iovs+ & Invest.\ Ophthalmol.\ Visual\ Sci.\ & \verb+\pre+ & Phys.\ Rev.\ E \\ \verb+\jcp+ & J.\ Chem.\ Phys.\ & \verb+\prl+ & Phys.\ Rev.\ Lett.\ \\ \verb+\jon+ & J.\ Opt.\ Netw.\ & \verb+\rmp+ & Rev.\ Mod.\ Phys.\ \\ \verb+\josa+ & J.\ Opt.\ Soc.\ Am.\ & \verb+\pspie+ & Proc.\ SPIE \\ \verb+\josaa+ & J.\ Opt.\ Soc.\ Am.\ A & \verb+\sjqe+ & Sov.\ J.\ Quantum Electron.\ \\ \verb+\josab+ & J.\ Opt.\ Soc.\ Am.\ B & \verb+\vr+ & Vision Res.\ \\ \verb+\jpp+ & J.\ Phys.\ (Paris) & & \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \footnotesize $^a$Comprensive journal abbreviations are available on the CrossRef web site: \\ \href{http://www.crossref.org/titleList/}{http://www.crossref.org/titleList/}.\normalsize \end{table} \clearpage \section*{List of Figure Captions} Fig. 1.
