Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on the broad spectrum of luminescence sensors, encompassing both traditional luminescence techniques and cutting-edge multiphoton approaches. Luminescence sensors, which include fluorescence, phosphorescence, chemiluminescence, and multiphoton fluorescence, are key tools for detecting a wide range of chemical, biological, and environmental changes with high sensitivity and specificity. We invite submissions that present advancements in sensor design, innovative detection methods, and practical applications of both conventional and multiphoton luminescence sensors. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, highly sensitive probes for medical diagnostics, biological imaging, environmental monitoring, and industrial applications. Additionally, contributions exploring the integration of luminescence sensors with advanced materials, nanotechnology, and artificial intelligence are encouraged.
Dr. Yovan de Coene

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. Sensors 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 2600 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.
