Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Luminescence is one of the most interesting physical effects in various fields of science, technology and medicine. Recent advances in related instrumentation and methods, as well as the simplicity of luminescent techniques adapted to a wide variety of applications, has made it very popular in many natural sciences. Luminescent and fluorescent analysis provide some of the most selective and sensitive ways for detecting many molecular compounds, impurities and biological tissues. We are announcing this Special Issue to focus on recent advances in the investigation of luminescence effects and their novel applications.
The scope of this Issue includes bioimaging, phonon-assisted upconversion, luminescent nanothermometry in vivo, analysis of biological tissues, characterization of impurities and color centers in crystals, investigation of intraband and interband transitions, nonlinear effects, quantum dots, and so on.
Dr. Pavel Alexandrovich Danilov

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. 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.
