Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The fields of nano-optoelectronics and photonics are experiencing rapid advancements, particularly in the design and application of nanostructured materials and devices. These developments are crucial for enhancing the performance and efficiency of modern optical systems, from solid-state lighting to quantum dots-based technologies. Recent research has shown that novel nanomaterials, when integrated with advanced optical device designs, can significantly improve light manipulation, energy efficiency, and sensing capabilities.
This Special Issue will explore cutting-edge research in nano-optoelectronic engineering, focusing on a range of key topics, from solid-state lighting innovations to advancements in quantum dots and quantum physics applications. We aim to highlight both fundamental studies and practical developments in nano-photonics and bio-photonics, where the interaction between light and biological materials can lead to groundbreaking medical diagnostics and imaging systems. Additionally, the design of non-imaging and imaging optical systems plays a pivotal role in modern display technologies and optical instrumentation.
Furthermore, we will address the fabrication and design of optical devices, including photonic sensors and detectors, and delve into the use of nanomaterials in optical materials engineering. By bringing together research from both academic and industrial perspectives, this issue aims to push the boundaries of imaging systems and optical lens design, driving future innovations in optical technologies and display systems.
We invite contributions that address these diverse fields, helping to expand the knowledge base of optical engineering and to inspire new applications in photonic devices, sensors, and advanced materials.
