Abstract:A deep understanding of ion desolvation in microporous electrodes is helpful for achieving efficient energy storage. Herein, we evaluate the contribution of ion desolvation to electrochemical performance of microporous electrodes with a proposed multiscale approach. By integrating the molecular version with the simple version of classical density functional theory, we first determine the solvation diameters of ions in confined molecular solvent, and then predict the capacitances of microporous electrodes throu… Show more
