Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to submit your manuscript to our Special Issue titled “Ultrafast Fiber Lasers and Their Applications”. Ultrafast fiber lasers with rare-earth-doped fibers as gain media have the advantages of miniaturization, high efficiency, and low cost. They show great potential in practical applications, such as precision microfabrication, aerospace, consumer electronics, automotive manufacturing, photovoltaic energy, and other industrial fields. In recent years, the emergence of new types of fibers such as infrared fibers, semiconductor fibers, and photonic crystal fibers has provided a broader stage for ultrafast fiber lasers. As the core component of many ultrafast laser application systems, the performance of ultrafast fiber lasers is the primary limiting factor for the whole system. However, there are still many aspects that need to be improved and enhanced in terms of performance.
This Special Issue aims to encourage scientists to publish their creative experimental and theoretical results in the field of ultrafast fiber lasers and their applications.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: High-performance fiber lasers, ultrafast laser dynamics, and applications of fiber lasers.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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.
