Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Transition metal selenides are compounds composed of transition metals (elements from the d-block of the periodic table) and selenium. Transition metal selenides possess stable physicochemical properties, abundant diversity in terms of material structures, and tunable electronic structures. They can form a wide range of material structures, including layered structures, nanostructures, and heterostructures. This diversity allows for tailored properties and functionalities, allowing them to be versatile for different applications. For instance, transition metal selenides exhibit certain potential applications in electrocatalytic hydrogen and oxygen reduction reactions, as well as in sodium/potassium-ion batteries.

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. Catalysts is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
