ambiguities in the text and equations or insufficient quality of figures
and lettering, Editorial Board may require resubmitting necessary materials
in printed or electronic forms. Printed manuscripts are to be submitted
by conventional mail (Ukrainian Journal of Physical Optics, 23 Dragomanov
St., 79005 Lviv, Ukraine). Articles should be accompanied with the Warranty
Form and the additional accompanying documents necessary for Ukrainian
contributors, which may be sent by conventional mail, fax or electronic
mail (PDF file).
PREPARATION OF MANUSCRIPTS: Manuscripts are to be written in

order: title of the article, authors' names, institutions and addresses
(including E-mails), abstract, keywords and PACS numbers, text, acknowledgments,
appendices and references. As a rule, articles should be divided into sections
(Introduction, Experimental, Results and discussion, Conclusions, etc.).
Manuscript length: The maximum length of manuscripts is 20 pages
(for invited articles or reviews), 10 pages (for regular articles) and
6 pages (for short notes or letters). The text should be typed, using Times
New Roman font (11-point size, 1.2-line spacing).
Margins: Top – 3.0, bottom – 4.7, left – 3.5 and right – 3.5

Abstracts: Each manuscript requires a leading
abstract (less than 100–150 words) in English summarising significant coverage
and findings.
Keywords and PACS: Three to six keywords
are required, which characterise the contents of the article, and relevant
PACS numbers.
Figures: Figures may be inserted immediately
into the text or gathered at the end of the article. All of them should
be numbered with consecutive Arabic numbers, have descriptive captions

the resolution not less than 600 dpi (TIFF, PCX or PS

to the text font size.
Tables: Insert tables into the text or gather
them at the end of the article. Number tables consecutively with Arabic
numbers and give each a clear descriptive caption at the top.
Equations: Equations should be prepared using
Microsoft® Equation Editor 3.0 for Microsoft® Word™97 or later
versions.

in square brackets; collect and type the full list at the end of the paper.
Listed references should be arranged as follows:

PRICING AND PAYMENT POLICY
1. Publication of articles in this journal is charged. The payment for
their publication is determined by the budget of the journal and is calculated
