Aims and Scope
JPPA publishes the results of fundamental studies on all aspects of chemical phenomena induced by interactions between light and molecules/matter of all kinds.

All systems capable of being described at the molecular or integrated multimolecular level are appropriate for the journal. This includes all molecular chemical species as well as biomolecular, supramolecular, polymer and other macromolecular systems, as well as solid state photochemistry. In addition, the journal publishes studies of semiconductor and other photoactive organic and inorganic materials, photocatalysis (organic, inorganic, supramolecular and superconductor).

The scope includes condensed and gas phase photochemistry, as well as synchrotron radiation chemistry. A broad range of processes and techniques in photochemistry are covered such as light induced energy, electron and proton transfer; nonlinear photochemical behavior; mechanistic investigation of photochemical reactions and identification of the products of photochemical reactions; quantum yield determinations and measurements of rate constants for primary and secondary photochemical processes; steady-state and time-resolved emission, ultrafast spectroscopic methods, single molecule spectroscopy, time resolved X-ray diffraction, luminescence microscopy, and scattering spectroscopy applied to photochemistry. Papers in emerging and applied areas such as luminescent sensors, electroluminescence, solar energy conversion, atmospheric photochemistry, environmental remediation, and related photocatalytic chemistry are also welcome.

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
The manuscript has been accepted. Let me share my submission experience with everyone. The process was not fast, but still went smoothly. I submitted on May 8th, and it went under review on the same day (probably technical review). On May 12th, it went to the editor. On May 23rd, it went under review again (probably for external review). There were two changes in the under review dates during this period. On July 2nd, required reviews were complete. On July 18th, it went under review again. On August 1st, there was a minor revision (adding an original compound structure and mentioning the need to redo the nuclear magnetic resonance due to impure substrate). On August 20th, it was revised. Finally, on August 25th, it was accepted! It was edited by a Japanese editor. I feel that the difficulty of submission is not high, as long as there is an innovative point and the writing is serious, it will be sent for review.
