Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Integrated photonic devices have been developed for decades. Several integration platforms, including InP, SiPh, and SiN, have seen successful progress in R&D and massive production. Lithium niobate emerges as a promising platform, driving photonic devices with higher performance. Each platform has its own benefits and drawbacks. The 2.5D/3D and monolithic/heterogeneous integration technologies are favored for the development of photonic devices with lower power consumption and higher bandwidth, and for photonic integrated circuits with more functionality and higher density. Integrated photonic devices have been used in many application areas, such as optical communications/interconnects, optical networking, optical/quantum computing, LiDAR, and optical sensing. However, the performance of integrated photonic devices still needs to be improved for large-scale integration and wide applications. The challenges relate to material, design, fabrication, and integration technologies. This Special Issue aims to cover various aspects of the recent advances in integrated photonic devices, including but not limited to:
- III-V and compound semiconductor devices;
- Silicon and other group IV photonic devices;
- LiNbO3 and other Pockels devices;
- Dielectric and polymer devices;
- Nanostructured photonic devices;
- Device fabrication and characterization;
- Integrated photonics application;
- Computational photonics technology;
- Nonlinear and quantum photonics;
- New materials for integrated photonics.

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. Electronics 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.
