Recently, "NMR and MRI of Electrochemical Energy Storage Materials and Devices" edited by Prof. Yong Yang of Xiamen University was officially published by the Royal Society of Chemistry (DOI: 10.1039/9781839160097).

Energy storage materials and devices are the important research objects in the multidisciplinary fields such as the materials science, energy science, and chemical science. During the past decade, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has emerged as a powerful tool to aid understanding of the working and failing mechanisms of energy storage materials and devices. This book is the 25th volume of the "New Developments in NMR" series published by the Royal Society of Chemistry, with a total of 17 chapters. Presenting a comprehensive overview of NMR spectroscopy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on energy storage materials, the book includes the theory of paramagnetic interactions and relevant calculation methods, a number of specific NMR approaches developed in the past decade for battery materials (e.g. in situ, ex situ NMR, MRI, DNP, 2D NMR, NMR dynamics) and case studies on a variety of related materials (e.g. oxide cathode materials, polyanionic cathode materials, intercalation/alloy anode materials, electrolytes and solid electrolyte interfaces, sulfide solid electrolytes, oxide electrolytes, composite electrolytes, supercapacitors, fuel cells and metal-air batteries, etc.). Helping both NMR spectroscopists entering the field of batteries and battery specialists seeking diagnostic methods for material and device degradation.

The book is edited by Prof. Yong Yang (Xiamen University), Prof. Riqiang Fu (National Laboratory for High Magnetic Fields), and associate Prof. Hua Huo (Harbin Institute of Technology). It is written by leading authorities from international research groups in this field. The graduates from Xiamen University including Dr. Guiming Zhong, Dr. Zigeng Liu, Dr. Yanting Jin, Dr. Dawei Wang and Dr. Li Qi, and current graduate students including Xiangsi Liu, Yuxuan Xiang, Ziteng Liang and Zhumei Xiao also participated in the book writing.
