Interfacial Lithium Redox Kinetics Regulated by Solvent Asymmetry and Moment of Inertia in Li Metal Batteries.
Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) offer high energy density, but interfacial charge-transfer kinetics remain a bottleneck for high-rate operation. In this work, we construct a library of 12 ether solvents with systematic variations in symmetry and fluorination, confirming that molecular asymmetry is an important feature t...
