Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Energy and environmental crises have become increasingly critical, and there is an urgent demand for green chemistry and transformation methods. As effective electron transfer methods, unique photoelectric synergistic catalysis methods have attracted widespread attention from scientists. Numerous research groups have carried out work in the field of photoelectrochemical synthesis, catalysis, transformations, and conversions. Photoelectrochemical catalysis consists of synergistic photocatalysts and electrocatalysts, using photons and electrons to initiate redox reactions instead of chemical oxidants or reducing agents, thus offering a more eco-friendly strategy for various reactions. In addition, photoelectrochemical cells, sensors, and devices are relevant to light absorption, charge separation/recombination and migration, and (electro)catalytic redox reactions, playing paramount roles in energy harvesting, conversion, detection, and characterization applications.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
