About this Research Topic
In photocatalysts and electrocatalysts, the surface area is the dominant factor to decide the extent of catalysis and its efficiency, and those materials with 1D morphology are superior to the those with particles when the recycling and aggregation are concerned. With this respect, the use of 1D nanostructures as photocatalysts and electrocatalysts is an upcoming field of interest.
The goal of this Research Topic is to highlight recent developments in the design and synthesis of 1D nanostructures and their inspired applications in photocatalysts and electrocatalysts.
The Topic Editors welcome submissions of Original Research, Review, Mini Review and Perspective articles that address, but are not limited to.
(1) Rational design of novel 1D nanostructures.
(2) Design of novel 1D nanostructures towards their photocatalytic applications.
(3) Design of novel 1D nanostructures towards their electrocatalysis applications.
(4) Experimental and theoretical studies on 1D nanostructures-based catalysis.
(5) New techniques to study 1D nanostructures.
Keywords: Photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, 1D nanostructures, rational design
