报告摘要：
50 years ago, pretty much at the same time when the first man walked on the Moon, battery scientists were also developing the first organic battery! Whereas space science has “rocketed” since, organic batteries, and in general, the battery field, has seen less disruptive advances. Over the past 2 decades however the organic battery field has seen a renaissance, most certainly driven by the sustainability and the raw materials criticality concerns for the upcoming massive battery demand. However, despite all this effervescence, a key component remains underdeveloped in the organic battery value chain: the organic metal-ion positive electrode chemistries with practical characteristics - resistant to oxidation and hydrolysis in ambient air in the reduced, metal-ion reservoir form, alike the conventional metal-ion cathodes. In this talk, I will broadly debate the possibilities for development of new organic redox chemistries with high voltage, ambient air stability in the metal-ion reservoir form, and intrinsic electrical conductivity. Some of the designed organic chemistries are also found to store not only the monovalent cations, but also highly efficient for the divalent cation storage, with extension to high voltage electrolytes and all solid-state systems by designing functional mixed ion-electron conducting battery materials.
