Organic Light-Emitting Diodes 3.0

Dear Colleagues,

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have seen rapid development and market growth, and have become leading technologies for displays and eco-friendly lighting sources thanks to their outstanding features (planar, soft, transparent, fully dimmable, flexible, spectrum tailorable, natural light style, human-friendly, energy-saving, etc.). Numerous materials, device architectures, and processing techniques have been explored, not only to stimulate commercialization but also to provide better display and illumination products to the world. However, there is large research scope to cover with a more competitive OLED technology from a lighting perspective. Hence, this Special Issue aims to gather the latest significant advances from OLED researchers and experts across the scientific community. This Special Issue will provide a platform for key aspects, such as the latest design strategy of blue organic materials, synthesis processes, approaches for the fabrication of blue OLEDs, high-quality lighting sources, and approaches for high-efficiency and long-lifetime devices. Research articles may also cover the following areas: efficient OLED materials, efficient OLED devices, light extraction techniques for OLEDs, the status of white light, PM-OLEDs, AM-OLEDs, OLEDs for signage, tandem OLEDs, transparent/flexible/wearable OLEDs, etc.

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. 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.
