Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Rechargeable batteries have become one of the necessities in our daily life. Continuously developing electrical devices for energy storage, transportation, communication, etc. pushes one to increase the energy density and safety of rechargeable batteries, which relies on the revolution of the key materials used in batteries. Of particular significance is probing the structure and failure mechanism of the electrode and electrolyte materials and interphases by using different characterization tools, and to correlate the materials design with the performance of batteries. This fundamental understanding is important to improve the performance of current batteries and to develop the next-generation high-energy density batteries for practical use.
In this Special Issue, advances in structure, characterization, and failure mechanism of key materials for high-energy density rechargeable batteries, are highlighted and discussed.
It is my pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript to this Special Issue. Full papers, communications, and reviews are all welcome.

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.
