TL;DR: In this paper, an electrolyte based on fluorinated carbonate solvents was evaluated with high voltage cathode materials at elevated temperature, and the theoretically high anodic stability of these new electrolytes was supported by electrochemical evaluation results using LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4/Li and LiNi 0.4Ti5O12 electrochemical couples.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an extensive overview of electrolytes for rechargeable zinc batteries in relation to the anode issues which are closely affected by the electrolyte nature, including aqueous electrolytes, from alkaline to acidic pH, and non-aqueous systems including polymeric and room temperature ionic liquids.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Mg2+ reversibly occupies the tetrahedral sites of the spinel structure through the reduction of Mn when the electrochemical reaction is performed.

TL;DR: In this article, porous carbon-supported MnO2 nanorods synthesized at room temperature were explored as an electrocatalyst for rechargeable Li-O2 cells, with a capacity of ∼1400 mA h g−1 (carbon + electrocatalysts) under a current density of 100 mA g −1 during the initial discharge.

TL;DR: In this article, a new electrolyte based on fluorinated solvents was studied in a high voltage Li-ion cell using graphite as the anode and 5-V spinel LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 as the cathode.
