Electrochemical Energy Storage Materials and Devices: Recent Advances and Future Prospects

Dear Colleagues,

The large-scale application of electric drive equipment, mainly electric vehicles, and renewable energy, including wind, solar, ocean, and so on, is in urgent need of developing new and efficient energy storage materials and devices with high safety, high energy density, and a long cyclic life. Therefore, researchers have carried out numerous studies on electrochemical energy storage materials and devices.

This Special Issue aims to collect the latest research advances and future prospects in the field of electrochemical energy storage, including, but not limited to, the following: high-performance electrode materials, advanced electrode structure, electrolyte composition, energy storage mechanism, and novel energy storage devices.

We welcome the submission of research and review papers in the field of rechargeable batteries (including lithium/sodium/potassium/zinc ion batteries, aqueous batteries, lithium sulfur batteries, lithium metal batteries, hybrid capacitor, etc.) to this Special Issue, titled "Electrochemical Energy Storage Materials and Devices: Recent Advances and Future Prospects".

We hope that this Special Issue provides a good platform of communication for researchers, engineers, and policymakers to create a comprehensive understanding of the latest advances in electrochemical energy storage materials and devices.

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
