Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Laser technology is one of the great achievements of the 20th century. Over the past 50 years, due to the rapid development of laser technology and applications, significant breakthroughs have been made in basic scientific research such as laser cooling, semiconductor lasers, optical frequency combs, laser interference gravitational wave detection, chirped pulse amplification, and optical tweezers. At the same time, a series of new interdisciplinary and technological applications have been raised by laser technology, including laser spectroscopy, laser chemistry, quantum optics, ultrafast photonics, nonlinear optics, laser medicine and biophotonics, information optoelectronics, laser advanced manufacturing technology, laser controlled nuclear fusion technology and so on.
At present, laser technology is still one of the most promising frontier technologies and has a wide range of applications in industrial manufacturing, scientific research, precision measurement and military defense, etc. New laser light sources are generally developing towards higher power, higher brightness, higher speed, higher pulse energy, shorter pulse width, narrower line width, and wider wavelength range (extreme ultraviolet and mid-infrared wavelengths). The rapid development and wide application of next-generation laser technology will be based on cutting-edge breakthroughs in new laser materials and devices. Researchers are invited to submit their contributions to this Special Issue. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- High-power laser
- High-brightness laser
- Ultrashort pulse laser
- Attosecond laser technology
- Narrow linewidth
- Single-frequency laser
- Frequency combs
- Ultraviolet laser
- Mid-infrared laser
- Semiconductor lasers

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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. Photonics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
