Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The phrase ‘organic photoelectric materials’ refers to organic materials with photoelectric conversion function and photoelectric activity. Widely used in organic light-emitting diodes, organic transistors, organic solar cells and other fields, they are rich in carbon atoms with large π-conjugated systems, which are divided into small molecules and polymers. Compared with inorganic materials, organic photoelectric materials can achieve large-area preparation and flexible device preparation via solution methods. In addition, organic materials possess a diverse structural composition and a wide space for performance adjustment. This can help to obtain the required properties via molecular design and can prepare nanodevices and molecular devices through bottom-up device assembly methods such as self-assembly. Organic photoelectric functional materials include hole transport materials, fluorescent materials, electron transport materials, polymer photoelectric conversion materials, small-molecule luminous materials, and modified polymer photoelectric conversion materials. In recent years, the subject of optical information material science, which has great significance in the information science and IT industry, has been developed on this basis.
This Special Issue’s scope includes organic chemistry, material science and physical chemistry. There is no restriction on the maximum length of the papers. Full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. In addition, the availability of compound samples should be published and is considered important information, and authors are encouraged to register or deposit their chemical samples.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
