General framework for the study of dynamical properties and arrested states of ionic liquids Article uri icon

abstract

  • In this work, we present a first-principles theoretical framework for the description of structural and dynamical behaviors of ionic liquids. This framework applies the self-consistent generalized Langevin equation (SCGLE) theory, which predicts the dynamically arrested states of several physical systems, including charge and size asymmetric ionic liquids. In its current form, the SCGLE is a particularly useful framework for predictions of arrested and partially arrested states in both classical and room-temperature molten salts, electrolytic solutions, and superionic conductors. Some illustrative examples of the predictive power of our framework are presented in this work, showing its potential application in design and development of novel conducting materials. © 2022 Author(s).
