Abstract :
The IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics (JSTQE) invites manuscript submissions in the area of Graphene Optoelectronics. Graphene, a one atom thick sheet of carbon, has already led to many breakthroughs in diverse areas of physics and engineering. Due to its unique combination of electronic and optical properties, it has recently also been recognized as a promising material for applications in optoelectronics. The absence of a bandgap and the linear dispersion of the Dirac fermions in graphene enable devices operating at wavelengths from the terahertz to the ultraviolet regime. Graphene enables a number of applications in optoelectronics, ranging from solar cells and light-emitting devices to touch screens, photodetectors and optical modulators. The purpose of this issue of JSTQE is to present the state of the art and recent developments in the field, from both experimental and theoretical perspectives.
