Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
There is a growing demand for electrochemical devices, such as displays, smart windows, sensors, capacitors, fuel cells, solar cells, and batteries, all of which are becoming more and more sophisticated. These devices have to be powerful enough to meet the technological advances and the development we are witnessing today, and, as such, they require an innovative vision for new materials and concepts.
Despite the potential high impact and applications for electrochemical devices, the problems with their materials’ development (electrodes, electrolytes, passivation, etc.), reliability, safety, and the possibility of integrating them into complex systems remain clear challenges. We invite authors to submit original research and review articles that seek to address the current limitations related to some of the abovementioned challenges. We are interested in articles that explore aspects concerning novel materials, new methods for preparation and characterization, environmental friendliness, low cost, etc.
Dr. Maria Manuela Silva
Guest Editor
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. Molecules 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 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.
