Answer: Option A, physics.

Step-by-step explanation: Photoluminescence is the emission of some type of light done by matter when it absorbs photons, this field is propper of the physics, that studies the electromagnetic waves (light) and the materials that react with it. While it also has some intersection with chemistry and biology, the principal field that studies this is the physics.
