Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fluorescent materials are useful in many applications, such as illumination, display, telecommunication, medical diagnosis, security checks, lasers, nuclear fusion, plant cultivation, etc. They play important roles in our daily life, culture and development.
More efficient and better thermal stable fluorescent materials are the permanent motivation for investigations. Furthermore, multimode excitation and multicolour emission are also of great interest.
The aim of this Special Issue is to focus on the latest developments in fluorescent materials including novel structures, luminescent centers and mechanisms, architectures or frameworks of packaged devices (e.g., LED and OLED), techniques, methods, and applications. We are mainly interested in advanced materials with excellent luminescent properties, but we are also interested in aspects that are useful for material developments such as novel designs for detectors, and unconventional applications are also welcome.
We believe that this collection will present recent interesting and important results that could be useful for young investigators and leading experts in the field. It will also be helpful for people with an interest in novel luminescent materials with advanced properties and potential applications in their projects.

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
