Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Semiconductor lasers have seen tremendous development in recent years because of their many advantages, such as compact size, high efficiency, long lifespan, and low power consumption. Semiconductor lasers have been used in many different fields, including communications, healthcare, sensors, industrial system manufacturing, etc.
This Special Issue welcomes all works related to the advances and applications in semiconductor lasers. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Lasers based on novel semiconductor materials;
- Laser modeling and experimental characterization of dynamics;
- Laser networks and their synchronization properties;
- Quantum cascade lasers, vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers, nanolasers, etc.;
- Optical communications and information encryption;
- Lidar/radar/sensor, including imaging and ranging;
- Microwave photonics;
- Random number generation and secure key distribution;
- Photonic crystal semiconductor lasers, nanoscale semiconductor lasers;
- All-optical processing using semiconductor lasers and amplifiers;
- Short-pulse lasers and mode-locked lasers;
- Semiconductor laser comb generation;
- Optical millimeter-wave generation;
- Semiconductor optical amplifiers;
- Other related applications of 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. 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.
