Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Because of the unique structure and excellent properties of graphene derivatives (such as graphene oxide (GO) or reduced graphene oxide (rGO)), the coupling of graphene with semiconductor materials presents the possibility to design and fabricate novel graphene-based materials. These composites have attracted extensive attention for their potential in environmental and energy applications. The Special Issue will be devoted to new developments and fundamental advances on graphene–semiconductor composites with tuned textural and surface chemical properties, and their applications in the photodegradation of organic pollutants, photocatalytic splitting of H2O, and photocatalytic reduction of CO2, as well as carbon electrodes for energy production and storage, among others.
It is our pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript for this Special Issue. Full papers, short communications, and reviews are welcome.
Dr. Luisa M. Pastrana-Martínez
Guest Editor
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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.
