Significant progress has been made recently in the development of Organic Ionic Plastic
Crystals (OIPCs), a unique family of solid state electrolytes with applications in …

Abstract Solid State Ionics has its roots essentially in Europe. First foundations were laid by
Michael Faraday who discovered the solid electrolytes Ag 2 S and PbF 2 and coined terms …

Superionic conductors are compounds that exhibit exceptionally high values of ionic
conductivity within the solid state. Indeed, their conductivities often reach values of the order …

Single-ion conducting solid electrolytes are gaining tremendous attention as essential
materials for solid-state batteries, but a comprehensive understanding of the factors that …

Density functional theory (DFT) molecular dynamics (MD)-simulations were performed on
cubic and tetragonal Na3PS4. The MD simulations show that the Na-conductivity based on …

Solid electrolytes provide a route to the development of all-solid-state batteries that can
potentially surpass the safety and performance of conventional liquid electrolyte-based …

Tremendous interest in solid-state devices has prompted the development of descriptors that
can be utilized to develop better materials. Previous work mostly focused on the static …

Antiperovskite structure compounds (X3AB, where X is an alkali cation and A and B are
anions) have the potential for highly correlated motion between the cation and a cluster …

Electrolytes used in rechargeable batteries must enable rapid translation of the working ion
between macroscopically separated electrodes. These electrolytes are, however, usually …

Superionic solid electrolytes have widespread use in energy devices, but the fundamental
motivations for fast ion conduction are often elusive. In this Perspective, we draw upon …
