Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As the Guest Editor of a Special Issue of Molecules on "Coordination Polymers: Synthesis, Structure, Luminescence and/or Magnetic Properties", it is my pleasure to invite you to submit an article on this topic. This Issue is devoted to the design of new coordination polymers (including porous compounds), the study of metal- or ligand-centered luminescence and/or magnetic properties, as well as the influence of different substrates on their absorption. The article may be either a full paper or a communication based on your own research in this broad area of coordination chemistry, or may be a focused review article on some aspect of the subject. All submissions will be subject to peer review.
Prof. Dr. Mikhail A. Kiskin
Guest Editor
