Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Organic luminescent materials have unique optical properties and have been widely used in sensing, imaging, diagnosis, treatment, and photoelectric fields. This Special Issue aims to collect the latest research papers on theoretical research and practical applications of organic luminescent materials.
It is our pleasure to invite you to submit research articles, review papers, and short communications focused on the design, synthesis, fluorescent mechanism, diagnosis, treatment, photocatalysis, photovoltaics, application prospect, development tendency and other aspects.
Topics of interests for this Special Issue include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Synthesis and functionalization of luminescent nanoparticles (carbon quantum dots, upconversion nanoparticles, etc.);
- Understanding the reaction mechanism of luminescent materials;
- Luminescent sensing (ions, small molecules, biomolecules, temperature, and pH, etc.);
- Development and optimization of luminescent probes for biosensing, imaging and theranostics;
- Applications in the areas of energy, environment, medicine, and biology.
We hope that this Special Issue will bring together researchers from different fields to share their latest findings and insights on luminescent materials, and ultimately advance this exciting research area.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
