The Journal of Photonics for Energy (JPE) is a new e-journal that covers fundamental and applied research areas focused on the applications of photonics for renewable energy harvesting, conversion, storage, distribution, monitoring, consumption, and efficient usage.

Areas of special interest for this journal include, but are not limited to:

Materials and Concepts:

• Novel photonic materials for renewable energy
• Innovative photonic concepts for renewable energy (e.g., light harvesting, light management, antireflective materials, plasmonic structures)

Devices:

• Photovoltaic devices (including thin film and organic semiconductors)
• Photonic devices for efficient harvesting and conversion of solar energy ()e.g., thermophotovoltaics, photoelectrochemical solar cells)
• Solar thermal and concentrator technology (e.g., thermoelectrics, mirrors, optics)
• Energy-efficient photonic devices (e.g., solid-state lighting, flat-panel displays)
• Sensors to measure, control, and regulate energy

Efficient Energy Usage:

• Photonic technologies for monitoring energy usage
• Photonic technologies for monitoring exhaust gases and pollutants
• Measurement techniques for energy technologies
• Photonics in process control (e.g., for more energy-efficient production processes)
• Photonics in production of renewable energy devices and applications

Applications:

• Photonic sensors in power plants and buildings
