The performance of electrochemical devices using ionic liquids (ILs) as electrolytes can be
impaired by water uptake. This work investigates the influence of water on the behavior of …

Low-temperature zinc metal batteries (ZMBs) are highly challenged by Zn dendrite growth,
especially at high current density. Here, starting from the intermolecular insights, we report a …

Ionic liquids (ILs) are an extremely exciting class of electrolytes for energy storage
applications. Upon dissolving alkali metal salts, such as Li or Na based salts, with the same …

Ionic liquids (ILs) are a promising class of electrolytes with a unique combination of
properties, such as extremely low vapor pressures and nonflammability. Doping ILs with …

Aqueous electrolytes subjected to angstrom-scale confinement have recently attracted
increasing interest because of their distinctive structural and transport properties, as well as …

Ionic liquids (ILs) are organic salts that remain liquid in absence of a solvent over a wide
range of temperatures, often at room temperature. This chapter summarizes the progress in …

Due to high theoretical capacity, low cost, and high energy density, sodium-sulfur (Na-S)
batteries are attractive for next-generation grid-level storage systems. However, the …

Modelling electrolytes accurately on both a nanoscale and cell level can contribute to
improving battery chemistries.[Armand and Tarascon, Nature, 2008, 451, 652-657] We …

Lithium-ion transport is significantly retarded in ionic liquids (ILs). In this work, we performed
extensive molecular dynamics simulations to mimic the kinetics of lithium ions in ILs using [N …
