Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As the representatives of energy and power devices, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) have developed rapidly in recent years. LIBs have in fact become the first choice for new energy vehicles, 3C electronic products, and electrochemical energy storage. Due to their high power density, energy density, and long cycle life, the application of LICs in automotive energy recovery, electrochemical energy storage and power assistance, fast charging, and high functional devices could be promising. However, there are still many problems remaining unsolved in the basic research and application of LIBs and LICs, including the rise of capacity, rate, and lifespan of electrode materials; the increase in ion transmission and storage capacity of anodes and cathodes; and the improvement of the electrode/electrolyte interface and stability of SEI. On the other hand, the progress of surface density of electrodes and proportion of active substances have become key issues in the research of lithium-ion batteries and lithium-ion capacitors. Furthermore, the pack design, stacking technology, equalization technology, SOC estimation, operation, and monitoring are also crucial to the application of LIBs and LICs as power supply equipment.

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. Batteries is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
