Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Presently, we are in an era where we have channelized the generation and harvesting of energy form non-renewable to renewable sources. From a technological perspective, for both energy storing and harvesting, we require advancements in material manufacturing, with its wide applications. Following the ground-breaking developments in the field of nanomaterials, the complete scenarios of energy storage, solar cells and photoelectrochemical cells have been completely revolutionized today.
This Special Issue aims to cover current investigations over both photoelectrochemicals and electrochemicals for different applications, such as hydrogen/oxygen evolution, energy harvesting as solar cells (i.e., perovskite solar cells, dye sensitized solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, etc.), supercapacitors, and lithium/sodium ion batteries. Reports dealing with the fabrication of different nanostructured materials focused over different metal oxides, metal chalcogenides, and carbon-based electrodes are invited, as are reports involving comprehensive reviews from leading researchers over similar topics.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
