Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
All-solid-state lithium-ion batteries (ASSLIBs) are attracting ever-increasing attention as a promising next-generation battery technology for emerging energy-storage applications. Compared to conventional lithium-ion batteries using organic liquid electrolytes, ASSLIBs feature the use of solid-state electrolytes (SSEs), which offer advantages of improved safety, simplified packaging, and a wide operable temperature range. However, a series of challenges have impeded the practical application of ASSLIBs, including the low ionic conductivity of SSEs at ambient temperature, mechanical and (electro)chemical instability of SSEs, high interfacial resistance, and insufficient interfacial contact between electrode and electrolyte. Over the past decades, tremendous efforts have been made to optimize the critical properties of different SSEs, improve the electrode/electrolyte interfacial stability and compatibility, and unveil the complex interplay between SSEs and electrodes. This Special Issue will focus on all aspects of ASSLIBs, including solid-state ionics, materials, electrochemistry, performance evaluation metrics, device design, and realistic applications. The scope includes:
- Development of high-performance SSE materials;
- Synthetic routes of SSEs;
- Lithium-ion-transport mechanism investigations;
- Interfacial dynamics and properties between SSEs and electrodes;
- Performance evaluation metrics and benchmarking;
- Computation-related investigations including modeling and simulations;
- Multifunctional device design for realistic applications of ASSLIBs.

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.
