We are delighted to announce a forthcoming web themed issue:
Artificial Photosynthesis
Guest editor: Andrew Benniston (Newcastle University)
Submission deadline: 15th August 2011 EXTENDED TO 30TH SEPTEMBER!!
We are now welcoming submissions for this web theme, which will be a celebration of current achievements and future perspectives in this exciting field of research. Communications covering all aspects of the following areas are encouraged:
- new materials and photocatalysts for solar photochemistry
- hydrogen production and water splitting
- nitrogen and carbon dioxide functionalisation
- light harvesting and energy transfer
- electron transfer (tunnelling vs hopping)
- coupled proton/electron transfer
- long-range electron transport
- multi-electron redox processes
- bioinspired molecular systems
- nanostructures for solar energy usage
All manuscripts will undergo strict peer review and should be very important and conceptually significant in accord with the ChemComm mandate.
Publication of the peer-reviewed articles will occur without delay to ensure the timely dissemination of the work. The articles will then be assembled on the ChemComm website as a web-based thematic issue, to permit readers to consult and download individual contributions from the entire series.
Communications for this web theme can be submitted anytime from now until 30th September using our web submission system. Please add the phrase ‘artifical photosynthesis’ in the comments to the editor field.
