Advances in Optical and Optoelectronic Devices and Systems

Dear Colleagues,

We cordially invite you to participate in this Special Issue on Advances in Optical and Optoelectronic Devices and systems by submitting research articles introducing the latest progress and exploring their applications.

Optoelectronic technology and optoelectronic devices are an important part of information technology in the 21st century, and have played a huge role in civil, military, education, scientific research and other fields, changing our social lives. In this Special Issue, we invite submissions exploring cutting-edge research and recent advances in optoelectronic devices and systems, ranging from laser materials to laser sources, novel optoelectronic devices and applications. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Laser materials and optical films:

New laser materials (glass, crystal, ceramic, etc.), nonlinear crystals, optical and functional films, etc.

• Laser devices and laser technology:

Solid-state, liquid and gas lasers; fiber lasers; semiconductor lasers; laser technology and devices; infrared, visible and ultraviolet lasers; CW, short-pulse and ultrashort-pulse lasers; ultrafast lasers; high-energy and average-power lasers; etc.

• Novel optoelectronic devices:

Optoelectronic sensors; optoelectronic detectors; electro-optic modulators; acousto-optic modulators; saturable absorbers; etc.

• Applications of optoelectronic devices and systems:

New optical devices, instruments, and technologies; laser detection; laser remote sensing; laser communication; space lasers; underwater lasers; new systems and concepts in laser detection; etc.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
