Effect of mild nanoscopic confinement on the dynamics of ionic liquids

Ionic liquids are molten salts without an additional solvent and are discussed as innovative solvents and electrolytes in chemical processing and electrochemistry. A thorough microscopic understanding of the structure and ionic transport processes is essential for tailored applications. Here, we study the influence of “mild” nanoscopic confinement on the structure and diffusion properties of an ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate, using scattering techniques. The structure is analyzed by X-ray diffraction, while neutron backscattering spectroscopy is used for the study of the diffusion processes in these systems. Interpreting the diffusion processes in terms of a jump-diffusion model allowed us to deduce the confinement effects on the jump length and residence time, both increased at elevated temperatures in confinement. The applied “mild” confinement, which leaves room for 10–25 times the domain spacing, allows us to observe in great detail how the onset of domain distortion decelerates the dynamics.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
