Electrochemical Potential Window of Battery Electrolytes

positive and negative potential limits of electrolyte

Author: Sarah B. One of the most persistent misconceptions in the battery community is the belief that the HOMO–LUMO gap of a solvent defines the electrochemical stability window of an electrolyte. It doesn’t. And this misunderstanding is costing us — scientifically and financially. The energy diagram [1] illustrates the electrochemical stability window of an electrolyte … Read more
