Aims & Scope✦ Compiled from public sources

The Journal of Luminescence communicates findings on electronic excited states of molecular, ionic, and covalent systems, including crystalline, amorphous, and liquid states. It welcomes submissions on optical spectroscopy, such as absorption, magnetic circular dichroism, luminescence, Raman scattering, and radiative and non-radiative relaxation. The journal also explores photoluminescence research, exciton and polariton dynamics, energy transport, recombination processes, and vibronic interactions.
