Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The engine of modern global economy is primarily powered by fossil fuels. However, fossil fuels are exhaustible, and their combustion has led to severe environmental issues and energy crisis. It is an urgent obligation to develop alternative and sustainable energy resources to overcome these challenges. Recently, various advanced photoelectronic nanomaterials, including single atom (metals or nonmetal) catalysts, quantum dots (graphene quantum dots, carbon dots, etc.), porous materials (MOFs, COFs, CPPs, etc.) have attracted tremendous interest for many photoelectrochemical reactions towards energy conversion and storage because of the high tunability of their electronic states through tailoring the coordination environment. However, it remains a great challenge to fabricate advanced photoelectronic nanomaterials with high stability, large production and clear reaction mechanisms, and to obtain practical and value-added products. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on novel photoelectronic nanomaterials, advanced characterization techniques, and advantages of their photoelectronic applications. The present Special Issue on “Development and Applications of Novel Photoelectric Nanomaterials” may become a status report summarizing the progress achieved in recent years.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
