Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Stimuli-responsive intelligent materials play a key role in production and life. Luminogenic molecules with solid-state emission which are sensitive toward various kinds of external stimuli (pressure, light, pH, solvent, etc.) have enormous potential in the fields of external sensing, memory devices, and anticounterfeit. To date, although a variety of organic and metal–organic emitters possessing different stimuli-responsive emissive chromic behaviors have been reported, stimuli-responsive chromic luminogens with new structures and multifunctional properties are still desired.

This Special Issue aims to highlight and overview, as completely as possible, all aspects of recent advances in stimuli-responsive chromic luminogenic materials. This Special Issue will cover the design, synthesis, and potential applications of stimuli-responsive chromic luminogenic molecules as well as the prospective directions in this promising field.

For this Special Issue, original research articles, reviews on specific subjects, such as force-, light-, solvent-vapors-, or temperature-responsive luminogens, are of prime interest. In addition, articles describing one or several scientific aspects of stimuli-responsive functionalized luminogens are also welcomed. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Stimuli-responsive intelligent luminogens and their applications in sensors, anticounterfeit, and biological fields;
  • The preparation of novel luminogens with stimuli-responsive chromic features;
  • The investigation of stimuli-responsive mechanisms of stimuli-responsive chromic luminophors;
  • The effect of molecular structural factors on stimuli-responsive chromic behaviors.

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.
