  • Lithium graphite intercalation compounds are important for developing Li-ion batteries. Here authors simulate the interaction of high energy X-rays with Li ions intercalated in graphite and show that Li ions behave in an unexpected non-Gaussian fashion, leading to increasingly chaotic behaviour as the ion concentration reduces.

  • Liquefied gas electrolytes (LGE) can enable the operation of electrochemical devices in cold conditions but their high vapour pressure poses safety concerns. Here, the authors show that the nano-confinement effect of metal-organic framework allows battery with LGE to work at low temperature and reduced pressure.

  • Charging and discharging Li-metal batteries (LMBs) at low temperatures is problematic due to the sluggish charge-transfer process. Here the authors discuss the roles of solvation structures of Li-ions in the charge-transfer kinetics and design an electrolyte to enable low-temperature operations of LMBs.

  • Polymer binders in battery electrodes can affect their performance, however design rules are still lacking. Here, the authors reveal why polyelectrolyte binders outperform charge-neutral alternatives in lithium–sulfur batteries, showing how cationic polyelectrolytes can regulate ion transport selectively.

  • Understanding lithium dynamics in solid-state electrolytes used for Li-ion batteries can be challenging. Using nonlinear extreme-ultraviolet spectroscopies, a direct spectral signature of surface lithium ions showing a distinct blueshift relative to the bulk absorption spectra is observed in a prototypical solid-state electrolyte.
