Dear Colleagues,

Since the first reports of single-molecule spectroscopy in the mid 1980s, single-molecule techniques have greatly expanded to include the study of photophysics and photochemistry of individual molecules, biomolecules, living cells, and nanomaterials.  The powerful application of absorption, fluorescence, and Raman spectroscopy to individual chromophores, be they molecules, proteins, or nanoparticles, has provided tremendous insight into the structure and dynamics of heterogeneous systems.  Applications of single-chromophore spectroscopy include imaging and microfluidics as well as studies of energy and charge transfer.

Submission

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. Papers will be published continuously (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as 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 refereed through a peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed Open Access monthly 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 1400 CHF (Swiss Francs).
