Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce this Special Issue of the MDPI journal “Advances in High-Power Diode Lasers”. Generating high-power laser light has developed as a versatile tool for research and industry, and has reached even the consumer market. However, demand is still growing for higher power, specific wavelengths, higher efficiency and elevated beam quality.
Due to their high conversion efficiency and compactness, diode lasers are suitable for a wide range of applications. They are the main source of laser light, either for direct use or as pump sources for other systems. Therefore, research into laser materials, epitaxial growth, active region geometry, heat sink and interconnection technology, electronic control and power sources, optical interconnects, and applications of the laser light are of high interest. This Special Issue is dedicated to combining the expertise in this field and offering a picture of the state-of-the-art research.
Dr. Martin Hempel
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. 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.
