Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite submissions to the Special Issue on "Terahertz Photonics: Recent Advances and Future Perspectives", focusing on the latest innovations and applications within the terahertz (THz) spectrum (0.1–10 THz). THz technology stands at the forefront of bridging electronic and photonic methodologies, alongside melding classical and quantum physics, offering unparalleled insights into non-contact material characterization, biomedical diagnostics, security, and ultrafast communication systems.
We are calling for submissions of review articles and original research that push the envelope in THz technology, providing fresh perspectives and breakthrough technological advancements. Theoretical and numerical studies are equally encouraged. Relevant topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Advances in THz sources and detectors.
- Ultrafast dynamics and nonlinear THz science.
- THz sensing and imaging technologies.
- Novel THz materials (e.g., nanostructures and metamaterials).
- THz applications in industry, security, and biology.
We eagerly anticipate your contributions and the opportunity to highlight the most recent achievements in THz science together.
Dr. Ziqi Li
Guest Editor
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. Photonics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
