Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue invites manuscripts that document the recent advances in “Femtosecond Laser and Its Applications”.
Femtosecond lasers have an ultrashort irradiation period of about 10-12-10-15s. The intensities of femtosecond lasers can easily exceed 1012Wcm−2. Because of their ultrashort irradiation periods and ultrahigh intensities, femtosecond laser pulses in some aspects fundamentally change the laser–material interaction mechanisms compared with long laser pulses, which has created wide-ranging and exciting new applications. This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advances in femtosecond lasers and their applications in femtosecond laser devices, femtosecond laser fabrication, and femtosecond laser–material interactions.
We will consider theoretical, numerical, and experimental papers that cover, but are not limited to, the following topics:
- Advances in femtosecond laser sources, detectors, and components;
- Fundamental study of femtosecond laser–material interactions;
- Ultrafast carrier dynamics, nonlinear ionization mechanisms, and nonequilibrium processes in advanced materials;
- Non-destructive detection techniques;
- Micro/nanoscale fabrication;
- Four-dimensional imaging and spectroscopy;
- Hologram imaging;
- Cell recognition.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
