Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Applications in energy storage and conversion relies heavily on the discovery of novel materials. By exploiting materials at the nanoscale, tremendous advancements have been made that have grown many industries (e.g. semiconductor, vehicle electrification, photonics, etc.).
Novel nanostructured materials are the centerpiece for emerging technologies. The synthesis and processing of nanostructured materials plays a key role in the adoption by such technologies as batteries, fuel cells, and supercapacitors. Moreover, the characterization of such materials becomes more critical, as our understanding of phenomena occurring at atomistic length scales relies heavily on novel characterization techniques equipped with a synchrotron source.
Research in novel nanostructured materials for energy-related applications requires the dissemination of new and exciting research, and we therefore welcome contributions from many different fields. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
Keywords
- Synthesis
- Batteries
- Supercapacitors
- Fuel Cells
- Electrocatalysis
- Water harvesting
- Electrodeposition
- New Materials
- Processing

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. Energies 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.
