Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of heterogeneous photocatalysis has given rise to thousands of papers. Most often, these papers are dispersed in many journals. Consequently, from time to time, there is a need for a Special Issue to provide a broad survey and address the various aspects of this field. For the readers, this Special Issue will give an attractive opportunity to obtain, more easily, information concerning the different facets of heterogeneous photocatalysis. For the authors, it will be an appropriate occasion to make their results and analyses more visible, and to show that they are active members of the scientific community in heterogeneous photocatalysis. This Special Issue will contain contributions discussing all the aspects broadly indicated by the keywords. Reviews articles by experts in the field will also be welcome.
Dr. Pierre Pichat
Guest Editor
