Description
Dear Colleagues,The significant climate changes caused by the consumption of fossil fuels have brought a great deal of attention to the community globally in recent years. One effective strategy is to develop clean and sustainable energy solutions to replace fossil fuels. Many countries are now shifting their energy structures from regular fossil fuel to the sustainable and green energy sources in the next decade. Additionally, more and more alternative energy generation has been spotted in both academia research studies and commercial markets. Among the strategies for sustainable energy, electrocatalysis processes has taken a vital role in securing the route of green energy in production and field applications. Energy storage devices, such as supercapacitors, batteries, and fuel cells, are also in a huge demand in energy storage and conversion. Therefore, more efforts are needed for further achievements in sustainable energy and energy storage devices. Overall, electrocatalysis has recently been highlighted in the development of renewable energy and biomolecules/chemical sensing applications considering the internal catalytic advantages of the surface reactions. This Special Issue is expected to further expand and facilitate the exposure of current studies in the related area, and to cover recent progress in electrocatalysis, biomedical/chemical sensors, and energy storage devices, including advanced materials and innovative technologies. Authors are encouraged to submit original research articles and review papers. The subtopics will include but not be limited to:
Electrocatalysis: hydrogen evolution, oxygen evolution, oxygen reduction, CO2 reduction, N2 reduction, etc.;
Energy storage devices: supercapacitors, metal ion batteries, metal air batteries, fuel cells, etc.;
Biomedical/chemical sensors: glucose sensors, hydrogen peroxide, and pH sensors, etc.
Potential authors are encouraged to consult with the Guest Editor before preparing their manuscript to make sure the research topics are in line with the proposed Special Issue.
