Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
TADF materials have gained significant attention in recent years due to their potential applications in various fields, including organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), photovoltaics, sensors, and data storage. Their ability to harvest both singlet and triplet excitons, coupled with their high emission efficiency and tunable emission colors, make them attractive for efficient solar cells, sensitive sensors, advanced data storage and fluorescent probe materials. Furthermore, TADF materials offer advantages such as low-cost synthesis, solution processability, and compatibility with flexible substrates, making them very promising for large-scale applications in the field of photoelectric chemistry. Ongoing research and development in TADF materials continue to explore new designs, improved performance, and expanded applications, paving the way for the advancement of next-generation technologies.
A special issue dedicated to TADF materials will provide a platform to showcase the latest developments, discoveries, and achievements in this rapidly developing field, serving as a platform for those researchers to share their findings, methods, and perspectives on TADF materials. This will facilitate the exchange of knowledge, stimulate discussions, and open new research directions, ultimately improving the collective understanding of TADF materials and their applications and providing an opportunity to discuss future directions, challenges, and potential solutions for improving performance, stability, and scalability of TADF materials. It also helps identify areas where more research is needed to unlock their full potential.

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.
