Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Organic and organometallic synthesis of luminescent materials has had a tremendous impact in nanomaterials research, specially from the point of view of the aggregation-induced fluorescent materials with a large range of applications: nanostructured materials oriented to chemical sensing, nanomedicine, biomaterials, biomolecular recognition and new anticancer tools, or the applications of aggregation materials in solar cells or energy conversion and storage. Organic synthesis is the base of the capping of noble metal luminescent nanoparticles, surface modified silica nanoparticles, and mesoporous materials, in search of stability and innovative applications. Either surfactants or synthetic organic as well as organometallic luminescent dyes are deeply studied in order to modify the surface characteristics of nanostructured new entities.
This Special Issue aims to cover the latest applications of organic and organometallic synthesis in the search and discovery of new luminescent nanomaterials, their developments and forthcoming prospects in cutting-edge applications. Its goal is to attract academic and industrial researchers to advance current knowledge of luminescent nanomaterials and present new ideas for future applications and new technologies. The preparation of devices containing those hybrid synthetic organic or organometallic compounds included in the most advanced luminescent nanomaterials and their use in state-of-the-art applications is also welcome in the topic.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2400 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.
