Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Laser wireless power transmission (LWPT) technology uses lasers as a carrier to realize the wireless transmission of electric power in free space. LWPT technology can quickly rebuild power supplies for disaster relief sites, local battlefield equipment, and also for unmanned aerial vehicles, space vehicles, and other equipment, and its huge application prospects are widely recognized by researchers.
The core part of LWPT technology is the laser at the transmitting end and the laser power converter (LPC) at the receiving end, whose performance directly determines the output characteristics of the transmission link; therefore, research concerning the laser and the LPC is very important.
This Special Issue aims to present an overview of cutting-edge research, visions, results, and their applications. We welcome broad, visionary contributions of short research reports, as well as a collection of reviews of accomplishments. We are excited to invite researchers to submit their contributions to this Special Issue. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Metal–organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD);
- Solar cell;
- Metamorphic buffer;
- III-V semiconductor material;
- Tunnel junction;
- Laser wireless power transmission (LWPT);
- Laser power converters (LPCs);
- Laser.

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.
