Optical Materials themed issue

Upcoming Nanoscale Themed issue for 2011: Optical Materials – Guest Editor: Claus Feldmann (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology)

Don’t miss it, submit your paper before the deadline: 08 December 2010

The aim of this issue is to address the fascinating field and recent discoveries in optical materials. Nowadays, luminescent nanomaterials are of outstanding importance in fundamental science, as well as with regard to technical applications. Chemical synthesis of high-quality materials ranging from semiconductor-type quantum dots or metal-doped oxides/fluorides to inorganic-organic composites/hybrids is as challenging as tackling all the relevant aspects of material optimisation and design – including particle size and agglomeration, specific surface conditioning, absorption/emission/decay characteristics, chemical/physical stability, cost/reproducibility or toxicity/biocompatibility.
