Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Novel materials with properties that are relevant for technological applications addressing societal demands have motivated the search for even more innovative materials: new types of glass, glass ceramics, hybrid materials, colloids, polymers, and quantum dots, among others. This Topic will focus on diverse aspects of innovative methods for the synthesis and characterization of these materials, highlighting their applications for photonics and optoelectronics and reviewing recent advances in the field. This issue will cover different emerging topics based on advanced nanomaterials for new light sources, photovoltaic devices, optical amplifiers, random lasers, and technological solutions for flexible photonics, among others. We intend to make this Topic an important research reference for those wanting to learn more about nanomaterials and the way they can be used in photonics and optoelectronics.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

  1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
  2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
  3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
  4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
  5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
