Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to a Special Issue focused on ‘Advances in Nanomaterials for Application in Electrochemical Devices’. Advanced materials manufacturing endeavors to deliver innovative solutions such as secure communications, lighter devices, and energy-efficient systems based on the fundamental principles of nanotechnology and electrochemistry. The continuous development and optimization of these high-performance materials is driven by the need for improved productivity, connectivity, and sustainability delivered at low cost. An understanding of the correlation between the physicochemical properties and electrochemical activity of a material can not only elucidate attendant surface reaction mechanisms and deactivation pathways but inform the rational design of the next generation of high-performance nanomaterials.

The above interests are the driving force of this Special Issue, which will address the different challenges directly linked to the deposition, fabrication, and manipulation of nanomaterials and nanocomposites that have applications in electrochemical energy generation, storage, and sensing.

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) contributions to the interface of functional nanomaterials and electrochemistry to enable the deployment of the next generation of advanced, high-performance electrochemical devices. The focus of this issue is to highlight recent progress in the rational selection, design, and engineering of advanced functional materials for electrochemical devices, including batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, electrolyzers, and sensors.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs).
