Electrolytes are central to life and technology but lack complete understanding. Recent
experiments with highly concentrated electrolytes have revealed electrostatic decay lengths …

Recent advances in studies of ionic liquids (IL) and ionic liquid–solvent mixtures are
reviewed. Selected experimental, simulation, and theoretical results for electrochemical …

Screening of electrostatic interactions in room-temperature ionic liquids and concentrated
electrolytes has recently attracted much attention as surface force balance experiments have …

The effect of ionic association on the structure and property of confined electrolytes is
investigated using the classical density functional theory. We find that ionic association …

We present a scaling view of underscreening observed in salt solutions in the range of
concentrations greater than about 1 M, in which the screening length increases with …

Underscreening is a collective term for charge correlations in electrolytes decaying slower
than the Debye length. Anomalous underscreening refers to phenomenology that cannot be …

Recent experiments have shown that the repulsive force between atomically flat, like-
charged surfaces confining room-temperature ionic liquids or concentrated electrolytes …

Using classical density functional theory, we investigate the influence of solvent on the
structure and ionic screening of electrolytes under slit confinement and in contact with a …

Hypersaline environments are ubiquitous in nature and are found in myriad technological
processes. Recent empirical studies have revealed a significant discrepancy between …

The direct measurement of forces between atomically smooth mica surfaces down to sub-
nanometer separation was pioneered over 50 years ago and has yielded deep …
