Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to announce the launch of a new Special Issue of the journal Nanomaterials entitled “Femtosecond laser fabrication of micro- and nanostructures and applications”. As Guest Editor, I cordially invite you to submit a manuscript for consideration and possible publication in this Special Issue.

During the last two decades, femtosecond laser fabrication techniques have shown the versatility in processing a variety of one-, two- and three-dimensional micro and nanostructures with a broad spectrum of materials, due to the unique features of ultrahigh peak power and ultrashort duration of femtosecond laser pulses. This Special Issue is devoted to recent advances in femtosecond laser fabrication of micro/nanostructured particles, surfaces and devices using various soft and hard materials. The topics include all relevant aspects of micro- and nanostructures fabricated by the femtosecond laser-based techniques such as femtosecond laser direct writing, laser ablation, laser pattering, laser deposition, etc., and their applications in the areas including, but not limited to, optics and photonics, spectroscopy, electronics, and biomimetics.

This Special Issue welcomes original and review contributions.

Prof. Dr. Huailiang Xu
Guest Editor

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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.

Micro-optics based on the artificial adjustment of physical dimensions, such as the phase, polarization, and wavelength of light, constitute the basis of contemporary information optoelectronic technology. As the main means of optical integration, it has become one of the important ways to break through the future bottleneck of microelectronic technology. Geometric phase optical components can precisely control the polarization, phase, amplitude and other properties of the light field at the sub-wavelength scale by periodically arranging nanometer-sized unit structures. It has received extensive attention in the fields of holographic imaging and polarization optics. This paper reviews the physical mechanism of micro-nano structure modification, research progress of femtosecond laser direct-writing photoresist, femtosecond laser ablation of metal thin films, femtosecond laser-induced nanograting, and other methods for preparing polarization converters and geometric phase optics. The challenges of fabricating ultrafast optical devices using femtosecond laser technology are discussed. Full article
