Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Semiconductor optoelectronic devices have attracted extensive attention for their variety of applications including telecommunication, sensing, energy conservation, displays, and lightning. To meet the growing demand, high-performance devices have been developed through advancements in materials, sophisticated device architectures, and innovative fabrication techniques.

This Special Issue aims to present up-to-date high-performance semiconductor optoelectronic devices, such as (µ)LEDs, lasers, photodetectors, and solar cells. Topics include but are not limited to the following:

  • Novel methods for synthesizing and fabricating optoelectronic materials;
  • Advances in device architecture for enhanced performance;
  • Techniques for characterizing and evaluating material properties and device performance;
  • Low-dimensional semiconductor optoelectronic materials and devices;
  • Semiconductor optoelectronic device physics, modeling, and simulation.

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.
