The Challenge of Characterizing High-Concentration Electrolytes at the Molecular Level: A Perspective
High-concentration electrolytes (HCEs) are promising materials composed of highly concentrated salt solutions in organic solvents. HCEs have many desirable properties and are particularly important in the field of batteries. However, the number of ways in which these materials can be tuned is very large, which is crucial for tailored electrolyte design. Moreover, the molecular characterization of HCEs is challenging both experimentally and computationally, but it is necessary for their rational design. Therefore, currently the structure–property–performance relationship of these electrolytes has not been directly derived from their characterization. In this Perspective we present a brief overview of the HCEs and discuss the state-of-the-art characterization methods used to study them at the molecular level. We also address the challenges associated with these methods, including both experimental techniques and computational tools currently available. Emphasis is placed on methods aimed at understanding the physical phenomena that govern the molecular structure and dynamics occurring on the subnanosecond and nanometer time and length scales. Finally, we discuss new strategies for obtaining a comprehensive characterization of HCEs at the molecular level.
