Professor Dirk Guldi joins the Chemical Science Editorial Board

Chemical Science is excited to share that Professor Dirk Guldi (Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany) has joined the journal as an Associate Editor.

Professor Guldi has previously served as the Editor-in-Chief of Nanoscale and Nanoscale Advances and brings this experience to his role as an Associate Editor for Chemical Science. Dirk is one of the world’s leading scientists in the field of charge transfer and nanocarbons. In particular, he is well-known for his outstanding contributions to the areas of charge-separation in donor-acceptor materials and the construction of nanostructured thin films for solar energy conversion.

His group is involved in the designing, devising, synthesizing, and testing of novel nanometer scale structures as integrative components for photoelectrochemical devices. The charge transfer behaviour of nanocarbon materials is also studied, in solution, as transparent films or at electrode surfaces.

 


“I am thrilled and honoured to join the distinguished team of scientist-editors at Chemical Science as an Associate Editor.

As the flagship journal of the Royal Society of Chemistry, Chemical Science publishes cutting-edge research at the forefront of chemistry and its interfaces with fields like materials science, energy, and nanoscience.

Over the past 15 years, I have co-authored 37 papers in Chemical Science, which have been cited nearly 1,500 times according to Scopus.  I am excited to bring this experience to my editorial role, helping to select the most impactful manuscripts, and to write forward-looking perspectives and reviews that guide research and help shape the future of the field.

I warmly invite submissions on topics including photoactive nanomaterials, carbon nanostructures, molecular photochemistry, nanotechnology, and sustainable solar energy technologies. Authors can expect fast decisions and a highly professional review process for manuscripts that advance to review.  I look forward to working with you to highlight the very best chemistry research.”
