讲座摘要
Organic liquid electrolytes used in lithium-ion batteries have merit of high ionic conductivity, however, they also suffer shortcomings of poor thermal stability and low transport efficiency of lithium-ions. In this talk, inspired by ion channels in biological systems, I will first demonstrate that lithium-ion electrolytes with biomimetic ionic channels could be constructed using metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as scaffolds. This is achieved by complexing anions of an electrolyte to the open metal sites of MOFs, producing ionic-channel analogs with lithium-ion conduction and low activation energy. With these findings, we further explore various applications in solid-state/polymer/semiliquid electrolytes, functional separators and additives.
