Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Tunable laser technology has advanced significantly, providing versatile light sources with adjustable wavelengths. These lasers are integral to telecommunications, enabling high-speed data transmission through wavelength-division multiplexing. In spectroscopy, they facilitate precise measurements of molecular absorption spectra for chemical analysis. Additionally, tunable lasers play crucial roles in material processing, offering control in laser ablation and micro-structuring. In medical diagnostics, they enable non-invasive imaging modalities like optical coherence tomography for detailed tissue imaging. Tunable lasers continue to drive innovation across industries, offering tailored solutions for diverse applications.

This Special Issue on 'Recent Advancements in Tunable Laser Technology' invites submissions of basic, methodological, and cutting-edge research, including regular and review papers, contributing to the following:

  • Creation and validation of single or multiple spectroscopic instruments for diverse applications.
  • Innovation in materials for generating tunable laser technology.
  • Advancements in multispectral lasers and methods for scalability.
  • Validation of methods and tools utilized or developed for tunable laser technology applications.
  • Review of current status.

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.
