Metal Oxides: Synthesis, Characterization, Theoretical Investigations and Applications

Dear Colleagues,

Innovations in sustainable energy technologies and environmental applications significantly depend on our ability to assemble and recognize nanomaterials of metal oxides, especially semiconductors with optimal properties. Therefore, the theoretical and experimental studies of such metal oxides, their heterojunction and nanocomposites for energy harvesting and environmental applications. So, fabrication (including low-cost methods and techniques) and characterization (including the electrical, optical, structural, and morphological properties) of such metal oxide nanomaterials is our aim to use multifunction in various energy, optoelectronics and environmental application like supercapacitors, solar cells, LEDs devices, wastewater treatment, antimicrobial, cancer imaging, drug delivery, and biosensors applications.

The main contribution of the present Special Issue is “Metal Oxides: Synthesis, Characterization, Theoretical Investigations and Applications”. We believe that this issue is theoretically and practically needed at present to discover outstanding future devices.
