Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Inorganic luminescent materials are composed of a luminescent center and a matrix, and in some cases additionally introduced impurity ions to improve the luminescence properties. In recent decades, inorganic luminescent materials with multi-color emissions have received considerable attention because of their emerging applications in solid-state lighting, backlight displays, lasers, biomedical imaging, and so on. Research activity is continuously growing together with the demand for materials with ever newer features, suitable for more and more sophisticated applications.
This Special Issue will compile recent developments in the field of inorganic luminescent materials: recent years of research and application. The articles presented in this Special Issue are dedicated to all aspects related to the development, synthesis, characterization, optical performance optimization, and applications of inorganic luminescent materials.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
