Organic Photonics: Organic Optical Functional Materials and Devices (2nd Edition)

Dear Colleagues,

Organic, optical, and functional materials and devices have potential application prospects in imaging, information security, industry, sensing, and medical treatment, and are the core of future photonics development. It is our pleasure to announce that Crystals has launched the second volume of the Special Issue on the research topic of ‘Organic Photonics: Organic Optical Functional Materials and Devices’. As you are a leading expert in this fields, we would like to invite you to participate in this Special Issue by submitting your recent research results or a review in your field of interest.

Your contribution may cover research topics such as the new designs of light-emitting diodes, light-emitting materials and devices, organic flexible driving materials, organic smart materials, recording, integrated optics, processing of organic materials for applications, laser devices based on micro- or nano-structured or micro- or nano-cavity lasers, random lasers, non-Hermitian, parity–time symmetry, sensors, or photodetection techniques.
