Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Photocatalysis has attracted increased attention as an emerging green technology. It has a wide variety of applications, such as water splitting, degradation of environmental pollutants, carbon dioxide reduction, and hydrogen peroxide production. In recent decades, numerous nanomaterials and nanocomposites have been adopted as photocatalysts—for instance, metal oxides, metal sulfide, and metal-organic frameworks (MOF). The design and development of advanced nanomaterials can accelerate the application of photocatalysis and has become a hot topic in photocatalysis. To achieve a rational design of photocatalysts, it is necessary to understand the relationship between the physicochemical properties of nanomaterials and their photocatalytic performances, as well as the fundamentals of photocatalytic reaction.
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide new findings in advanced nanomaterials for photocatalysis and offer valuable inspiration and insight for researchers working in this field. Full papers, communications, and reviews are invited. Potential topics include but are not limited to:
- Photocatalysis for environmental applications;
- Water splitting;
- Photocatalytic production of hydrogen peroxide;
- Photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide;
- Photoelectrocatalysis;
- Heterojunction nanocomposites;
- Nanomaterials for environmental applications;
- Other studies of nanomaterials associated with photocatalysis.

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 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.
