Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, materials-based research work has been attracting the global research community due to its unprecedented role in various parts of device fabrications. Among them, electrochemical methods such as, supercaps, dye-sensitized solar cells, batteries, water splitting, and so on are highly imminent in terms of meeting the future globe energy requirements. Innovation of novel material for electrochemical systems is highly crucial to develop capable components of future energy devices, including storage and production, to improve the currently used, inept devices.
In the last couple of decades, nanomaterials and 1- and 2-dimensional materials have served as gifted materials for various applications, including energy, opto-electronics, bioelectronics, sensors, and biological applications. Recently, nanocomposites, polymer-mixed nanocomposites, and metal organic frameworks have ruled the materialist world due to their unbelievable performance in various electrochemical devices. Hence, this Special Issue is especially focused on publishing novel materials design and characterization for future electrochemical systems. Further, we have planned to extend its scope towards novel characterization techniques to analyze the materials’ capability for device fabrications.

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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
