Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become the most popular and important energy storage devices for 3C electronics, electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage systems. Meanwhile, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), solid-state lithium-ion batteries (SSLIBs) and other novel ion batteries are also attracting more and more attention as next-generation energy storage devices. To further improve performance and safety, it is quite important to understand the mechanisms in the batteries. The development of novel materials and advanced techniques also greatly promotes the exploration of the underlying mechanism. Therefore, this Special Issue is focused on mechanisms in batteries and characterization methods.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Failure analysis on LIBs and SIBs;
- Property and evolution of interfaces in SSLIBs;
- Design and development of novel materials for LIBs, SIBs and other novel ion batteries;
- DFT and MD modeling on electrolyte and electrode materials;
- Advanced experimental and theoretical characterization methods for battery analysis.

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. Batteries 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- Reprint: MDPI Books provides the opportunity to republish successful Special Issues in book format, both online and in print.
