Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical energy storage devices (e.g., capacitors and secondary batteries) play very important roles in the efficient utilization of renewable and clean energy (e.g., solar and wind energy). The device performance is highly dependent on the electrode materials. Nano materials (e.g., nano carbon materials) are promising electrode materials for electrochemical energy storage due to their unique structural morphologies and specific chemical compositions. The nanostructures (e.g., 0D nanodot, 1D nanofiber, 2D nanosheet, and 3D porous network) supply large electrolyte/electrode surfaces for fast ionic diffusion and provide numerous active sites for ion storage. Therefore, the nano materials show superior performance as electrode materials for energy storage, realizing the assembly of capacitors and secondary batteries with high energy, high power, and long lifetime.
In this Special Issue, we invite the research community in the field to contribute original scientific articles exploring cutting-edge research and recent advances in Nano materials for Electrochemical Energy Storage. Comprehensive review scientific articles will be also accepted. We are looking forward to your contribution.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
