Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is my pleasure to announce the launch of a new Special Issue of the journal Nanomaterials entitled “Femtosecond Laser Fabrication of Micro/Nanostructures and Applications (Second Edition)”. As Guest Editor, I cordially invite you to submit a manuscript for consideration and possible publication in this Special Issue.
During the last two decades, femtosecond laser fabrication techniques have shown versatility in processing a variety of one-, two- and three-dimensional micro- and nanostructures with a broad spectrum of materials, due to the unique features of ultrahigh peak power and ultrashort duration of femtosecond laser pulses. This Special Issue is devoted to recent advances in femtosecond laser fabrication of micro/nanostructured particles, surfaces and devices using various soft and hard materials. The topics include all relevant aspects of micro- and nanostructures fabricated by femtosecond laser-based techniques, such as femtosecond laser direct writing, laser ablation, laser pattering, laser deposition, etc., and their applications in areas such as optics and photonics, spectroscopy, electronics, and biomimetics.
This Special Issue welcomes original and review contributions.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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 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.
