Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the last few decades, many studies have demonstrated that nanoparticles represent a versatile system that is widely used throughout scientific research in numerous applications within a number of different fields. Nanoscale functional materials have been explored in terms of their excellent mechanical properties, electrical properties, magnetic properties, optical properties, sensitivity, catalysis, and photoactivity.
This Special Issue aims to collect recent progress and developments in the design and synthesis of highly functional, nanostructured photocatalysts with enhanced properties. Furthermore, the mechanisms of photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants and the processing–structure–property relationships are of great interest to this Special Issue.

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.
