Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the past decade, lithium-ion batteries have greatly contributed to improving our daily life. However, concerns surrounding the depletion of lithium resources have promoted the development of new types of electrical energy systems. As an alternative to lithium-ion batteries, rechargeable potassium batteries have attracted significant attention due to their high energy density and sustainability. Hence, the importance of rechargeable potassium batteries as an alternative of commercial Li-ion batteries has been highlighted by various scientific societies. In this Special Issue, we wish to present informative works and recent achievements on innovative functional materials for rechargeable potassium batteries, with the aim to facilitate and promote research in this filed.
It is our great pleasure to invite you to submit original research papers, short communications, or state-of-the-art feature articles (comments or reviews) within the scope of this Special Issue. This Special Issue will discuss key technological developments and scientific information on a broad range of rechargeable potassium batteries, such as K-ion, K-O2, K-S, K-metal, and all-solid-state potassium batteries.
