Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The journal Organics is pleased to announce a Special Issue entitled “Synthesis and Applications of Fluorescent Carbon Dots”.
Nanotechnology, particularly carbon nanomaterial science, has become increasingly recognised and significant in recent years due to the exceptional properties and versatile applications of these materials across various fields, including information technology, healthcare, environment remediation, food, and security.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest advances in fluorescent carbon dots synthesis from different raw materials and their effect on the properties of nanomaterials, particularly how these characteristics influence their practical applications and can be used for large-scale production. Other approaches, such as nanomaterial functionalization and surface modification, which can effectively tailor the properties of carbon dots, should also be explored.
The topics for publication may include, but are not restricted to, applications of fluorescent carbon dots in drug delivery technologies, (bio)sensors, biomedical imaging, environmental monitoring, security, and anti-counterfeiting.
Therefore, we are pleased to invite you to submit a manuscript for publication in this Special Issue. Contributions in the form of full papers, communications, and reviews are welcome.

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. Organics is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
