State-of-the-Art Physical Chemistry and Chemical Physics in Europe

Dear Colleagues in Europe,

In this Topical Collection, "State-of-the-Art Physical Chemistry and Chemical Physics in Europe", original research articles and reviews from wide aspects of physical chemistry and chemical physics will be published. The contributions must provide significant new innovation, advances, and insights into the physical chemistry and chemical physics fields, with a focus on molecular, supramolecular, and nanoparticle research. All the submitted manuscripts (including invited ones) will be screened by the editors and peer-reviewed by reviewers for further action. We invite scientists in Europe working on physical chemistry and chemical physics to join this initiative and send their best work for consideration to be published in this Topical Collection.

Topics to be considered include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Intermolecular forces that act upon the physical properties of materials;
• Reaction kinetics;
• The identity of ions and the electrical conductivity of materials;
• Surface science and electrochemistry of cell membranes;
• Spectroscopy and dynamics of ions, free radicals, polymers, clusters, and molecules;
• Chemical structures and reactions at the quantum mechanical level;
• The structure and reactivity of gas-phase ions and radicals;
• Energy/charge transfer dynamics in organic/inorganic materials;
• Physical and chemical processes in nanomaterials, nanoparticles, and quantum dots;
• Spectroscopy and dynamics;
• Physical chemistry in biological molecules;
• Confinement and aggregation effects;
• Thin films, self-assemblies, and supramolecular structures;
• Chirality and chirogenic phenomena.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
