      Decoupled Ion Mobility in Nano-Confined Ionic Plastic Crystal 

      Zhu, Haijin; Grzelak, Aleksandra; Yunis, Ruhamah; Martín Pérez, Jaime ORCID; Forsyth, Maria (Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2020-12-01)
      Nanoconfined ions have dramatically different local environments compared to the bulk, which profoundly affects the ion solvation and transport properties taking place in the confined space. Herein, we investigate the ...
