Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Developing high-efficiency energy storage is considered a promising strategy to face the energy crisis. Thanks to their good stability, appropriate conductivity and rich sources, carbon materials have shown promise regarding application in electrochemical energy storage. Currently, various strategies are being developed to take advantage of the effects of carbon materials in terms of different dimensions, different architectures or morphology, different doping or compositions, and so on, to create improved applications. Additionally, carbon materials could easily be combined with photo-, thermo-, magnetic-active materials for expanded electrochemical energy conversion and storage. Therefore, carbon materials are a rising star in this area, attracting a large amount of interest. In the present decade, research on carbon nanomaterials, such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and organic/inorganic composites, has surpassed by far that in all other fields of nanotechnology. This Special Issue will focus on the frontiers in functional carbon materials for electrochemical energy storage, including but not limited to the design of carbon precursors, the regulation of carbon morphology and structure, the optimization of components and properties, and the extension of synthesis and applications. We welcome your contributions to this Special Issue, in the form of original research articles, short communications, and reviews, focusing on the application of carbon materials in electrochemical energy science.

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.
