High Ionic Conduction in Rb‐ and Cs‐Mixed Cation Amide for Energy Storage (Small 36/2025)
Ionic conductivity In article number 2502943, Thi Thu Le, Claudio Pistidda, and co-workers illustrate the ionic transport behaviour of the newly developed Rb0.5Cs0.5NH2 solid solution. Rotational dynamics of NH2 groups, coupled with cation pathways, enable significantly high ionic conductivity. The synergy between experimental observations and DFT calculations reveals the fundamental mechanisms underlying enhanced ion mobility and structural stabilization in this promising solid-state material.
