Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Among the various energy-storage devices, batteries and supercapacitors (SCs) represent the two leading electrochemical energy-storage (EES) technologies. The main challenge surrounding EES devices is understanding the electrolyte/electrode interface to optimize the overall performance (e.g., high energy density, fast kinetics of the charge–discharge processes, and stability upon cycling). While a great deal of attention has been focused on the electrode, electrolytes are also a versatile tool to modify the electrolyte/electrode interface. This Special Issue on Energy Storage Materials is open for submission of works dealing with experimental results and/or calculations based on multiscale modeling, helping to understand the electrolyte/electrode interface and providing insights about novel electrodes and electrolytes that improve storage performance (in terms of both energy and power density and electrochemical stability).

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.
