Much of chemistry is concerned with the study of reactions and processes in solution, that is,
where liquids are used as solvents. 2, 3 The solvent is the (excess) liquid phase in which …

Ionic liquids are emerging as important materials for applications in electrochemical devices,
green chemistry etc. For device applications, ionic liquids are generally, either incorporated …

Ionic liquids (ILs), salts with melting points below 100° C, represent a fascinating class of
liquid materials typically characterized by an extremely low vapor pressure. Besides their …

Herein, a new solvation strategy enabled by Mg (NO3) 2 is introduced, which can be
dissolved directly as Mg2+ and NO3− ions in the electrolyte to change the Li+ ion solvation …

In order to understand basic principles of the double layer formation in room temperature
ionic liquids, we have performed Molecular Dynamic simulations for a simplified system …

Theoretical investigations of ionic liquids are reviewed. Three main cate-gories are
discussed, ie, static quantum chemical calculations (electronic structure methods), traditional …

Ultrathin films of two imidazolium-based ionic liquids (IL),[C1C1Im][Tf2N](= 1, 3-
dimethylimidazolium bis (trifluoromethyl) imide) and [C8C1Im][Tf2N](= 1-methyl-3 …

The interface structure between room temperature ionic liquids, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium
hexafluorophosphate (BMIM+/PF6−) and 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate …

A perspective is given on the potential of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to investigate
ionic liquid (IL) interfaces and related bulk properties. To allow for cross-correlation of …

A unique, but unifying, feature of ionic liquids (ILs) is that they are nanostructured on the
length scale of the ions; in many ILs well-defined polar and apolar domains exist and may …
