Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Owing to the global energy crisis and environmental pollution, effective energy storage has become a hot topic being studied all over the world. Although batteries and electrochemical capacitors possess a high energy density, they suffer from low power density. In contrast, dielectric capacitors exhibit a relatively high power density, which can be used for electromagnetic catapults, military weapons, new energy vehicles and other pulsed power systems. Unfortunately, the conflicts between the polarization and the maximum applied electric field impede the improvement of energy storage performance and the applications of dielectric capacitors. Therefore, it is urgent to develop dielectric capacitors with high energy storage density and efficiency.

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.
