About the journal
|
Luminescence provides a forum for the publication of original scientific papers, short communications, technical notes and reviews on fundamental and applied aspects of all forms of luminescence, including bioluminescence, chemiluminescence, electrochemiluminescence, sonoluminescence, triboluminescence, fluorescence, time-resolved fluorescence and phosphorescence. Luminescence publishes papers on instrumentation, mechanistic and synthetic studies, basic biology and biochemistry, assays and analytical methods.
Luminescence also publishes details of forthcoming meetings, information on new products, and book reviews. A special feature of the Journal is surveys of the recent literature on selected topics in luminescence.

Instructions to Authors
This Journal has adopted the 'Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals' (the Vancouver style) and full details are reproduced in J Biolumin Chemilumin 1993;8:3-14.
Initial manuscript submission. Submit three copies of the manuscript (including copies of tables and illustrations) to either the Editor-in-Chief or to one of the Regional Editors, whichever is closer to you. The mailing addresses are given on the Editorial Board page.
Authors must also supply:
- an electronic copy of the final version (see section below),
- a Copyright Transfer Agreement with original signature(s) - without this we are unable to accept the submission, and
- permission grants - if the manuscript contains extracts, including illustrations, from other copyright works (including material from on-line or intranet sources) it is the author's responsibility to obtain written permission from the owners of the publishing rights to reproduce such extracts using the Wiley Permission Request Form. Permission grants should be submitted with the manuscript.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been previously published and should not be submitted for publication elsewhere while they are under consideration by Wiley. Submitted material will not be returned to the author unless specifically requested.
Electronic submission. The electronic copy of the final, revised manuscript must be sent to the Editor together with the paper copy. Disks should be PC or Mac formatted; write on the disk the software package used, the name of the author and the name of the journal. We are able to use most word processing packages, but prefer Word or WordPerfect.
Illustrations must be submitted in electronic format where possible. Save each figure as a separate file, in TIFF or EPS format preferably, and include the source file. Write on the disk the software package used to create them; we favour dedicated illustration packages over tools such as Excel or Powerpoint.
Manuscript style. The language of the journal is English. All submissions, including book reviews, must have a title, be printed on one side of the paper, be double-line spaced and have a margin of 3 cm all round. Illustrations and tables must be printed on separate sheets, and not be incorporated into the text.
- The title page must list the full title, a short title of up to 70 characters, and the names and affiliations of all authors. Give the full address, including e-mail, telephone and fax, of the author who is to check the proofs.
- Include the name(s) of any sponsor(s) of the research contained in the paper, along with grant number(s).
Original Research papers require the following sections:
Abstract. The abstract must be a concise (up to 200 words) summary of the whole paper, not just the conclusions, and should be understandable without reference to the rest of the paper. It should contain no citation to other published work. After the abstract include up to five keywords that describe your paper for indexing purposes.
Introduction. A concise account is required about the background to the subject, its importance and its relationship to earlier works, with references.
Materials and methods. This should be presented as a clear and detailed description of experimental procedures and analytical conditions to enable readers to carry out similar work. Supply sample preparation procedures, name, model and configuration details of equipment used, and data handling methods.
Results (and Discussion). The original and important findings should be stated.
Acknowledgements. These must be brief and placed at the end of the paper.
Nomenclature, units and symbols. Chemical nomenclature should follow the IUPAC Rules (see Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry (1979), Nomenclature of Inorganic Chemistry (1970) and Compendium of Analytical Nomenclature (1977), Pergamon Press, Oxford). Biochemical nomenclature should follow the tentative rules and recommendations of the IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature (see Biochemical Nomenclature and Related Documents (1978), Biochemical Society, London). All abbreviations should be preceded the first time they appear by the full name except for the SI symbols for units which are to be used without explanation. Lists of approved abbreviations are contained in Baron, D.N. (Ed) (1977) Units, Symbols and Abbreviations: a Guide for Biological and Medical Editors and Authors, 3rd edn, Royal Society of Medicine, London.
Short Communications must be complete, self-contained papers, and not preliminary reports. In style and presentation they should conform to that laid down for manuscripts but length should not exceed two printed pages in the journal. As a rough guide, two printed pages will consist of about 800 words of main text, with an abstract, one small figure to fit a single column (width 84 mm), one small table and a short reference list. They will be given preference over papers in speed of publication although the author should inform the Editor why priority is warranted.
Reviews will usually be written at the invitation of the Editors. Unsolicited reviews will be welcome but authors wishing to submit a review are requested to consult the Editors prior to commencement.
News Items. News articles, press releases and conference diary items for inclusion in Luminescence News section should be sent by post, fax or e-mail to Katya Vines, John Wiley & Sons Ltd., Baffins Lane, Chichester, West Sussex, PO19 1UD, UK.
Book Reviews. The Editors will be pleased to receive books for possible review. Please send them to the Editor-in-Chief.
Reference style. References should be cited in the text as arabic numerals within parentheses and listed at the end of the paper in the order in which they appear in the text. All references must be complete and accurate. Online citations should include date of access. If necessary, cite unpublished or personal work in the text but do not include it in the reference list. References should be listed in the following style:
- Johnson HH, Mitchell CJ, Curtis GDW. An automated test for the detection of significant bacteriuria. Lancet 1976;2:400-2.
- Seitz WR, Hercules DM. Chemiluminescence analysis for trace metals. In Chemiluminescence and Bioluminescence, Cormier MJ, Hercules DM, Lee J (eds). Plenum: New York, 1973;427-50.
- Harvey EN. Living light. Princeton University Press: Princeton, 1940.
Illustrations. Supply each illustration on a separate sheet, with the lead author's name, the figure number and the top of the figure indicated. Supply original photographs; photocopies or previously printed material are not acceptable. Line artwork must be high-quality laser output (not photocopies). Tints are not acceptable; lettering must be of a reasonable size that would still be clearly legible upon reduction, and consistent within each figure and set of figures. Electronic versions of the artwork should be supplied at the intended size for printing; the maximum column widths are 84 mm (one column) or 176 mm (two columns). The cost of printing colour illustrations in the journal will be charged to the author. If colour illustrations are supplied electronically in either TIFF or EPS format, they may be used in the PDF of the article at no cost to the author, even if this illustration was printed in black and white in the journal. The PDF will appear on the Wiley InterScience website.
Chemical structures. Chemical structures should be prepared in either 84 mm (one column) or 176 mm (two column) widths. However, the one-column format should be used whenever possible as this allows greater flexibility in the layout of the manuscript. Chemical structures should be supplied at the same size as the intended printed version (so no enlargement or reduction is required).
For drawings prepared with ChemDraw please use the following settings:

Authors using different structural drawing programs should choose settings consistent with those above. Compound numbers should be bold, but not atom labels or captions.
Copyright. In order to enable the publisher to disseminate the author's work to the fullest extent, the author must sign a Copyright Transfer Agreement, transferring copyright in the article from the author to the publisher, and submit the original signed agreement with the article presented for publication. A copy of the agreement to be used (which may be photocopied) can be found in each volume of Luminescence. Copies may also be obtained from the journal editor or publisher, or may be printed from this website.
Further information. Proofs will be sent to the author for checking. This stage is to be used only to correct errors that may have been introduced during the production process. Prompt return of the corrected proofs, preferably within two days of receipt, will minimize the risk of the paper being held over to a later issue. Twenty-five complimentary offprints will be provided to the author who checked the proofs, unless otherwise indicated. Further offprints, and copies of the journal, may be ordered. There is no page charge to authors.
