Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fiber lasers and amplifiers are nowadays a powerful tool in many fields, and support fundamental science investigations, biomedicine and healthcare, advanced manufacturing, sensing, future earth-space communications, and cancer detection. Fiber lasers and amplifiers therefore have a strong impact on everyone's everyday life. However, the main applications are limited those of a small group of lasers emitting at specific wavelength, namely from 1 micron to 2 microns; in contrast, addressing the visible/ultraviolet mid-infrared region is still a challenge. This Special Issue aims to provide an overview of the state of the art and to discuss future trends, with regard to devices and possible applications. Papers related to new fiber types, the main building blocks of fiber lasers and amplifiers, will also be very favorably considered for this Special Issue. Original research as well as review papers are invited for this Special Issue.
