摘要
Chemical Research in Chinese Universities(CRCU),a well-known research journal attracting worldwide researchers and covering various chemistry-related subject areas,has been indexed by SCI and included in over 20 global authoritative databases.Owing to the rapid development of advanced catalytic chemistry,in particular the solar-driven energy and environment catalysis,we herein organize this themed column on photocatalysis,which is also dedicated to celebrate the 35th anniversary of CRCU.Worldwide highly cited scholars from Australia,USA,UK and China,in the fields of nanoengineering and photocatalysis,are invited to contribute to this issue.
