JOURNAL OF FLUORESCENCE

The Journal of Fluorescence (ISSN 1053-0509) is a bi-monthly international peer-reviewed journal published by Springer/Plenum Publishers in the United States, dedicated to advancing the science and application of fluorescence technologies. As an SCI-indexed publication, the journal typically maintains an impact factor around 2.0 and is generally classified in the third or fourth quartile of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) journal ranking system within the chemistry or physical chemistry categories. It encompasses a broad spectrum of research areas, including fluorescence spectroscopy, the design of fluorescent probes, bioimaging, material fluorescence properties, and detection techniques in environmental and medical contexts, with a particular emphasis on the integration of experimental results with theoretical frameworks and cross-disciplinary applications. While not fully open access, the journal offers partial open access options and serves as a reputable venue for researchers in the field, characterized by a moderate level of competition, rigorous requirements for technical detail and novelty, and a review process that may be relatively lengthy, making it an appropriate choice for scholars seeking to publish high-quality studies that align with its established scope and style.
