Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on the recent breakthroughs of novel, high-performance semiconductor lasers for various applications, including communication, sensing, and display applications. In recent years, considerable progress has been made in the development of semiconductor lasers. On the one hand, demand for emerging applications drives research into high-performance semiconductor lasers. For example, for coherent communication, a laser with high power and narrow linewidth output is desired, as is frequency-modulated continuous-wave radar (FMCW) LiDAR for self-driving applications, and high-performance fully visible spectrum lasers (red, green, and blue) for rapidly growing AR/VR display applications. On the other hand, the development of semiconductor lasers is driven by new physics applied to lasers, such as topological-cavity lasers.

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.
