Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Rapid advancements in nanotechnology have revolutionized material science, enabling the development of functional nanomaterials with unprecedented properties and applications. Functional nanomaterials, owing to their unique structural, electronic, optical, and mechanical properties, have become pivotal in addressing critical challenges in diverse fields such as energy, healthcare, catalysis, and environmental sustainability. Their innovative synthesis methods allow for precise control over the size, shape, and composition of nanomaterials, unlocking their potential in diverse cutting-edge applications. This call-for-papers invites contributions to the field of "Innovative Synthesis and Applications of Functional Nanomaterials", which focuses on novel methodologies for synthesizing functional nanomaterials and their applications in energy storage/conversion, environmental remediation, biomedicine, and catalysis.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Synthesis: advanced and green synthesis methodologies.
  • Characterization: diverse techniques for probing morphology, structure, and properties.
  • Energy Applications: batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, redox–flow, nanogenerators, and solar energy devices.
  • Environmental Applications: water purification and pollution control.
  • Biomedical Applications: drug delivery, antimicrobial, anticancer, bioimaging, and biosensors.
  • Catalysis: electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, and heterogeneous catalysis.
  • Optical Applications: imaging, communication, biophotonics, and storage.
  • Hybrid and Composite Nanomaterials: Multifunctional materials for advanced applications.

This Topic seeks high-quality research that highlights innovative synthetic methods in multifunctional nanomaterials, fostering advancements in science and technology.
