Applied Physics B - Topical Issue: Europhoton 2024

New Content Item

This Europhoton 2024 topical issue will cover the latest breakthroughs in the field of solid-state, fibre and waveguide light sources. Included papers will cover the topics presented at the 11th EPS-QEOD (this opens in a new tab)Europhoton (this opens in a new tab) conference to be held in Vilnius, Lithuania (August 25th – 30th, 2024).

Two broad topics are covered at Europhoton, ‘Solid-State Lasers’ and ‘Fibre and Waveguide Devices’. Furthermore, this year’s special symposium is dedicated to ‘Quantum-Photonics Technologies’. As such this Europhoton 2024 topical issue will focus on developments at the frontiers of these fields capturing the state of the art in photonics, new directions and systems.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Novel concepts in laser and amplifier architectures
  • Upconversion, tunable, and ultrafast solid-state lasers. Developments in average- and peak-power scaling
  • Novel nonlinear (Parametric, Raman etc.) oscillators and amplifiers and conversion techniques
  • Coherent sources for metrology, remote sensing, and quantum applications
  • Growth, characterisation, and spectroscopic investigations of nonlinear and solid-state-laser materials.
  • Novel fibre and waveguide concepts, fabrication, and characterisation.
  • Waveguided broadband and super-continuum light sources.
  • Entanglement, squeezed light, and coherence controlled.

Authors of accepted papers at the Europhoton (this opens in a new tab) conference will be invited to submit an extended manuscript to this topical issue (Submission deadline 30 November 2024), thus providing an opportunity to report at greater depth the highlights reported in the proceedings of, and at, the conference itself.

All manuscripts will be subject to a standard peer review procedure with respect to their degree of novelty, relevance, and quality of presentation. There is a publication target of two weeks after acceptance and all papers will be grouped together under the Topical Collections (this opens in a new tab) tab on the journal’s homepage. The complete collection will be made freely available for two months following the publication of the final accepted paper. Free-to-author Open-Access publishing is available to authors through their institutional’ s OA agreements (this opens in a new tab) (this opens in a new tab)with Springer Nature.
