Abstract: ［Purposes］ Optics papers published by Chinese researchers on the SCIE journals in the latest 5 years are investigated. The results will benefit the development of optical research and optical journals in China. ［Methods］ Optics papers published on journals indexed in SCIE by Chinese researchers between 2011 and 2015 were analyzed based on Web of Science database. ［Findings］ 37371 optics papers were published on 90 SCIE optical journals by Chinese researchers, which received 161069 citations, as well as 4.31 times per paper. The number of optical papers published on SCIE optical journals by Chinese authors increases gradually. China has frequent cooperation with main developed countries in optical research. Chinese scientists are active and eye-catching in some optical fields. ［Conclusions］Improving the quality of existed optical journals in China, launching new journals and cultivating young scholars can promote the development of Chinese optical journals.
