Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanomaterials, with a least one dimension below 100 nm, are widely used in various fields, such as optoelectronics, sensors, biomedicine, and ultrafast photonics, due to their remarkable optical and electrical properties. Light–matter interaction such as light absorption, and the transmission, reflection and scattering of matters is the basis of fundamental research and devices for applications. Due to the light–matter interactions, laser spectroscopy can be used to study physical properties of matter. Photonic devices are also based on the manipulation of light–matter interactions. In recent decades, nanomaterials such as 2D materials have been used in nonlinear and ultrafast optics, which have made significant contributions to various optical devices with excellent performance, such as ultrafast lasers, low-dispersion mirrors, optical fibers, optical component (SESAMs, optical modulators, ultrashort light pulses). Two-dimensional layered materials and 2D perovskite materials have also been used for optoelectronic devices such as photodetectors, photovoltaics, LED and lasers. Nanostructured materials, including metasurface, metamaterials and single nanostructures, have been designed to manipulate optical spectra and beam steering. Light–nanomaterial interaction, therefore, has a broad range of applications in various areas.
The Special Issue aims to present the recent advances in light–nanomaterial interactions for fundamental research and applications. The topics include the linear/nonlinear optical properties of nanomaterials studied by laser spectroscopy, and the design of nanostructures for altering optical properties. All interested authors are welcomed to submit their newest research results for possible publication in this Special Issue.

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 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.
