Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Laser machining is a highly flexible, widespread, non-contact process used in industry and science. Laser processing is used extensively, from mass processing to micromachining and microstructuring in the semiconductor, electronics, automotive, aerospace, and biomedical applications. A wide range of laser sources with various combinations of wavelength, pulse duration, energy, and pulse frequency offer a wide range of research and production opportunities in many fields, especially in materials science, in the discovery and design of new or advanced materials.
This Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, new and advanced materials using laser machining/fabrication techniques, laser micro/nano-production, theoretical modeling of the interaction of laser light with matter, simulations giving insight, and understanding of processes taking place during laser processing.

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
