Special issue on
Dielectric Energy Storage Materials
Summary and Scope
The significant demand for efficient and environmentally friendly electrical energy storage technologies is spurred by numerous emerging applications ranging from advanced microelectronics to electric vehicles and grid-connected renewable energy systems. The most efficient and extensively studied energy storage devices include, but not limit to, chemical energy storage devices (batteries), solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), electrochemical capacitors (supercapacitors), electrolytic capacitors and electrostatic capacitors (dielectric capacitors), representing the majority of electrical storage technologies today. Dielectric capacitors that store electrical energy in an electrostatic field possess the highest power densities, i.e., up to 107–108 W*kg−1 versus 101–102 W*kg−1 for batteries and 102–106 W*kg−1 for electrochemical capacitors, owing to their fastest charge–discharge rates at a micro-second scale. Dielectric capacitors are thus essential for pulsed power applications such as electrified transportation, power conditioning and switching, and advanced propulsion. There have been extensive research activities on the development of dielectric materials including ceramic, glass, polymers and ceramic-polymer composites for high-energy-density capacitors. We are witnessing groundbreaking developments in dielectric materials. It is to be expected that these developments, coupled with ongoing fundamental research on dielectric phenomena and recent advances in computational methods, should lead to the development of high-performance dielectric materials that will revolutionize energy storage devices.
The Journal of Materiomics (JMAT), indexed in SCI (Impact Factor of 5.797) and Scopus (Cite score of 8.6), is a leading academic journal that publishes cutting-edge research in the general field of materials science, particularly systematic studies of the relationships among composition, processing, structure, property, and performance of advanced materials. The journal is going to publish a special issue on the topic of dielectric energy storage materials in 2022.
从先进的微电子技术到电动汽车和与电网相关的可再生能源系统等的快速发展，对高效且环保的电能存储技术提出了极高的要求。最有效且被广泛研究的能量存储设备包括但不限于化学能量存储设备（电池），固体氧化物燃料电池（SOFC），电化学电容器（超级电容器），电解电容器和静电电容器（介电电容器），它们代表了当今大多数电存储技术。在静电场中存储电能的介电电容器具有最高的功率密度，即高达107-108 W*kg−1 ，而电池为101-102 W*kg−1 ，电化学电容器为102-106 W*kg−1 ，因为介电电容器具有微秒级的最快充放电速率。因此，介电电容器对于脉冲电源应用（如电气运输，功率调节和开关以及先进驱动设备）必不可少。介电材料的研发已取得很多成果，包括用于高能量密度电容器的陶瓷，玻璃，聚合物和陶瓷-聚合物复合材料。我们正在见证介电材料的突破性发展。可以预期，这些成果，再加上正在进行的有关介电现象的基础研究以及计算方法的最新进展，会促进高性能介电材料研发，这将彻底改变储能设备。
Journal of Materiomics（JMAT）被SCI（影响因子为5.797）和Scopus（Cite score为8.6）收录，该刊引领材料学科发展前沿，注重报道以材料设计、制备、表征及应用技术为主线的系统性前沿研究成果，将在2022年出版介电储能材料专刊。
