Call for Papers
The IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics (JSTQE) invites manuscript submissions in the area
of Semiconductor Lasers. Topics can include:
• UVB and UVC lasers, and quantum interband or intersubband cascade lasers, to extend operation wavelengths
further into the ultra-violet and terahertz;
• Nanoscale, sub-wavelength sized lasers;
• Vertically emitting lasers, such as VCSELs, external cavity surface emitting lasers, and disc lasers;
• High-power lasers, including beam combining, single-wavelength and multi-wavelength lasers, mode-locked and
Q-switched lasers, and directly-modulated lasers;
• Lasers based on novel semiconductor materials, such as germanium and silicon, transition-metal dichalcogenide,
solution processed gain, and/or novel heterostructures, such as quantum dot, well and wire lasers;
• Laser modeling and experimental characterization of, for example, gain, noise, nonlinearities and dynamics;
• Integration of lasers on existing and non-native integration platforms, such as silicon and silicon nitride, through,
e.g., wafer-bonding, transfer printing, and heteroepitaxy, and laser-enabled photonic integrated circuits
