Photochemistry and Spectroscopy is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to publishing original, cutting-edge research in the fields of photochemistry and spectroscopy. The journal features a range of article types, including short communications, full-length research articles, and review papers, and covers all aspects of photochemical and spectroscopic phenomena. Manuscripts that address molecular and materials structure-related challenges using both experimental and theoretical approaches are welcome. The journal is published quarterly online by Scilight Press. More
