Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Photocatalytic processes have shown great potential as a low-cost, green-chemical, and sustainable technology which can address energy and environmental issues. The photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants in the environment is a clean way of modern green environmental protection. In addition, photocatalysis is also widely used in energy conversion, such as photocatalytic hydrogen production, perovskite solar cell, and alcohol fuel conversion. More interestingly, photocatalysis shows great potential in the context of carbon neutrality, such as converting carbon dioxide into value-added chemicals, fixing nitrogen under mild conditions.
This Special Issue welcomes research on the design and preparation of photocatalytic materials, the principle of semiconductor photocatalysis, semiconductor photoelectrochemistry, photocatalytic research methods, and the latest applications of photocatalytic materials in energy conversion and environmental purification.

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. Photochem is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
