Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Conductive Materials for Solar Cells and Supercapacitors Section of the journal Molecules publishes original research and timely review articles that cover all aspects of conductive materials in term of synthesis, characterizations, and applications, including organic solar cells, perovskite solar cells, quantum-dot solar cells, and supercapacitors. This Section aims to update our understanding on all related fields of conductive materials, including conductive polymers, carbon materials, metal nanowires, metal mesh and metallic oxide, with the goal of advancing the development of conductive materials, and thereby promoting their commercialization.
To be considered for publication in this Section, all submitted works must undoubtedly relate to conductive materials, i.e., research on conductive polymers and their applications on solar cells and supercapacitors. Moreover, the submission of related characterizations and necessary mechanism analysis is encouraged.
In particular (but not exclusively), this Section invites contributions that report on the following topics:
- Synthesis/preparation of conductive materials;
- Applications of conductive materials on organic solar cells;
- Applications of conductive materials on perovskite solar cells;
- Applications of conductive materials on quantum-dot solar cells;
- Applications of conductive materials on supercapacitors;
- Applications of conductive materials on solar cell–supercapacitor integrated devices (photocapacitors);
- Other conductive materials-related studies.

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.
