Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fiber lasers, a remarkable innovation in laser technology, have gained significant attention due to their unique advantages and vast potential. These lasers utilize optical fibers, enabling them to achieve ultra-short pulses and high power densities and efficiencies while maintaining excellent beam quality. In research, fiber lasers are an ideal platform on which to investigate the interaction between ultra-short pulses. The applications of fiber lasers are equally impressive, as they are used in a wide range of industries, including telecommunications, material processing, medical imaging, and sensing. They are also finding new applications in emerging fields, such as quantum computing and LiDAR systems. This Special Issue aims to publish selected contributions on advances in fiber laser technology and their applications. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Ultra-short and ultra-fast fiber lasers;
- Solitons in fibers lasers;
- Complex optical pulses in fiber lasers;
- Supercontinuum generation in fiber lasers;
- New type mode locker or Q-switcher in the fiber lasers;
- High-power fiber laser technology;
- New locking technology in fiber lasers;
- Mid-IR photonics;
- Fiber lasers for LiDAR.

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.
