Ionic Liquids for High Performance Solid-state Lithium Metal Batteries
The quest for high energy storages has driven the growth of high-performance lithium metal batteries, but this has also raised serious safety concerns. In response, ionic liquids (ILs) have become a popular choice due to their high ionic conductivity, non-flammability, and ability to facilitate the …

Characterising Electrolyte Interactions with Carbon Anodes for Sodium Ion Batteries
… reflecting the increasingly graphitic nature of high-capacity hard carbons. Within a NIB, the surface layer that forms on the anode during cycling, i.e., the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), is of crucial importance to the performance of the battery as it inhibits the transfer of electrons …
