Special Issue Information
In today's information societies, the need for energy is increasing day by day. At this point, the effective and efficient storage and reuse of energy obtained from different sources when needed are important issues. Supercapacitors are attracting more and more attention as a function of the rapid progress in material technologies in recent years. The production of new-generation electrode materials for supercapacitors, which are used in many different fields, especially in transportation, energy and utility, aerospace, military, electronics, industrial, and medical fields, is also becoming an important issue. This Special Issue will aim to cover and evaluate works relating to the application of new-generation electrode materials, including coordination compounds for supercapacitors, metal organic frameworks, metal oxides, metal sulphides, two-dimensional materials, conductive polymers, etc.

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. Crystals 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 2100 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.
