Advanced Nanomaterials for Lithium-Ion Batteries
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
The key fundamental discovery underlying lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is the understanding and application of the insertion of ions between layers of graphite, metal sulfides and oxides. Thirty years later, the exceptional development of lithium-ion battery technology has been rewarded with the 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. As the research effort continues, this Special Issue is devoted to Advanced Nanomaterials for LIBs. Recent developments outline the chemistries of lithium-ion batteries, including cathode and anode materials, organic electrodes, solid-state electrolytes, solid polymers, and solvent-in-salt electrolytes and other chemistries. These advances cover novel synthetic methods, crystal chemistry, structure and physico-chemical properties, redox reactions, and electrochemical performance. We invite contributions on topics that include original research data, review articles, communications, and short notes that focus on new (experimental or theoretical) advances, challenges, and perspectives of nanomaterials for LIBs concerning their preparation, characterization, and application.
