All-Solid-State Rechargeable Batteries

Dear Colleagues,

With the deterioration of environmental ecosystems due to pollution and the depletion of non-renewable energy resources, the energy problem has become a major obstacle to future development, and the development of a new type of battery with high safety and environmental friendliness has become a necessary trend. New energy batteries have been applied to aspects of daily life, such as new energy vehicles, computers and other common electronic mobile devices. However, commercialized organic rechargeable batteries have many safety risks such as explosion and liquid leakage, so the development of a new type of rechargeable battery with high safety has become an important part of future battery development. Rechargeable solid-state batteries have become the first choice for the next generation of new batteries due to their high safety and high energy density. The stable and non-flammable solid-state electrolyte provides the possibility of commercialization. Therefore, how to improve the electrochemical performance and optimize the safety of rechargeable solid-state batteries has become a key issue to be overcome in the subsequent development.

For this Special Issue, we would like to receive submissions that contribute to the exploration of different novel solid-state electrolytes for rechargeable 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. 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.
