Unravelling the structural and dynamical complexity of the equilibrium liquid grain-binding layer in highly conductive organic crystalline electrolytes

Abstract

A nanolayer of surface liquid phase in equilibrium with the bulk solid is responsible for the low grain boundary resistance in the solid electrolyte LiCl·DMF, as supported by a combination of experiment, theory, and modelling.
