Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, "Recent Advantages in the Design and Performance of Novel Li-Battery Materials", focuses on the latest advancements in the field of lithium battery materials, which have become an essential power source for various applications. From portable electronics to electric vehicles, there is still a need to further improve energy density, safety, and cost.
We welcome articles that provide valuable insights into the design principles and strategies that can enhance the performance of lithium batteries, discussing the use of various materials, such as metal oxides, carbon-based materials, and solid-state electrolytes, to improve the energy storage capacity and cycle life of lithium batteries. Additionally, the Special Issue also addresses the challenges associated with the integration of these new materials into practical battery systems.
Topics include the synthesis and characterization of new electrode materials, the exploration of advanced electrolytes, and the investigation of novel battery architectures.

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. Materials 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.
