\begin{abstract}All OL manuscripts should be
submitted in two-column format to assist length estimate. OSA no
longer requires submission of single-column double-spaced text.
This template, along with associated style files, should be used
to prepare an article for submission to \textit{Optics Letters}
(OL). Examples are given of how to account for some of the factors
that affect the accuracy of the length estimate: figures, tables,
equations, and author affiliations. Note that this template is
only a guideline, and not a guarantee, of final page
length.\end{abstract}

\noindent Authors should prepare all OL manuscripts with the
\texttt{[twocolumn]} option. This will assist both the author and
OSA staff in estimating final page count. Preparing a length-check
manuscript also involves setting tables and figures within the
body of the paper with appropriate sizing commands and placing the
\verb+\twocolumn[...]+ command around the title\-page elements (as
explained \hyperlink{frontmatter}{below}). There are also
instructions at the end of the template for setting up author
affiliations properly. Note that it is no longer necessary (or
desirable) to set articles in single column or to set figures and
tables at the back of the manuscript.

\bigskip

Sample code for the preamble is as follows:

\small
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass[10pt,twocolumn]{article}
\usepackage{ol}
%% Figures should be placed in body
%% of manuscript and
%% sized appropriately.
\end{verbatim}
\normalsize



The command \verb+\twocolumn[...]+ must be placed around the titlepage elements in the two-column option. Note that proper figure, table, and caption environments should be used (see samples below).

\begin{figure}[htb]
\centerline{\includegraphics[width=7.5cm]{richardson-f1.eps}}
\caption{One-column figure set with the figure environment.}
\end{figure}

\begin{figure*}[htb]
\centerline{\includegraphics[width=10cm]{richardson-f1.eps}}
\caption{Two-column figure set with the figure* environment.}
\end{figure*}



\textbf{Displayed equations} may be the most problematic for
two-column display. \emph{Optics Letters} equations are usually
set in one column; breaks and alignment should bring out the
structure of the math:
%% LaTeX
%\begin{eqnarray}
%{\dot{E}_{x,y}} &=&\frac{1}{2}\left( 1+j\alpha \right) \left( G_{x,y}-\gamma \right) %E_{x,y}  \label{Eq1} \nonumber \\
%&&+\kappa E_{x,y}\left( t-\tau \right) \exp \left( -j\Omega
%_{x,y}\tau \right) \nonumber \\
%&& + (\beta _{sp}N)^{1/2} \xi _{x,y}.
%\end{eqnarray}

%% amsmath
\begin{align}
{\dot{E}_{x,y}} &=\frac{1}{2}\left( 1+j\alpha \right) \left( G_{x,y}-\gamma \right) E_{x,y}  \label{Eq1} \nonumber \\
&\quad+\kappa E_{x,y}\left( t-\tau \right) \exp \left( -j\Omega
_{x,y}\tau \right) \nonumber \\
&\quad + (\beta _{sp}N)^{1/2} \xi _{x,y}.
\end{align}


Use standard LaTeX or AMSTeX environments. For equations that \textit{must} span two columns, it is possible to use a float environment, e.g., \verb+\begin{figure*}...\end{figure*}+.
Such an environment will not interfere with figure or table numbering (which is controlled by the caption), but it \textit{will} cause equations to float, often with unwanted consequences.

\textbf{Figures} should  be set to one-column size \mbox{($\sim$8.3 cm)} whenever possible; \textbf{tables} should also be set to one column whenever possible,
but tables with more than five columns will probably need to be set to two columns. For two-column layout, figures and tables can be set across both columns with the alternate figure and table environment commands
\verb+\begin{figure*}...\end{figure*}+ instead of \verb+\begin{figure}...\end{figure}+. Note that tables are typeset and cannot be reduced in size like art, which may require more space than in the submitted paper.

\subsection*{Sample figure environment:}
\small
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{figure}[htb]
\centerline{
\includegraphics[width=8.3cm]{richardson-f1.eps}}
 \caption{Sample figure.}
\end{figure}
\end{verbatim}
\normalsize

\textbf{References} callouts are now formatted with the \texttt{cite} package, which produces bracketed reference style (e.g., [1]).
For online callouts, e.g., see  [1], the words ``Ref.'' and
``Refs.'' are not required.

Before submitting, authors who use BibTeX should first run BibTeX,
then paste the contents of the output file \texttt{*.bbl} into the
\texttt{*.tex} manuscript file. Our electronic submissions system
cannot process BibTeX directly.
