Fiber Laser and Their Applications
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fiber lasers are key components that have attracted wide attention owing to their advantages such as compact structure, high peak power, high efficiency, and excellent beam quality. Nowadays, many efforts have been made to improve the emission performance of the optical fiber laser, including its pulse duration, peak power, stability, etc. Furthermore, high-peak power fiber lasers have been adopted as an edge tool in both research and industry fields, such as nonlinear optics, optical imaging, laser processing, 3D printing, etc.
We are pleased to invite you to submit your original research articles and reviews to this Special Issue, "Fiber Laser and Their Applications," which will focus on the recent advances in both ultrafast optical fiber lasers and their applications. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Mode-locked fiber laser.
- Q-switched fiber laser.
- High-power fiber laser.
- Advanced optical material.
- Laser imaging.
- Micro/nano structure fabrication.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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.
