A versatile functionalized ionic liquid to boost the solution-mediated performances of lithium-oxygen batteries, Published online: 05 February 2019; doi:10.1038/s41467-019-08422-8

Li-O2 batteries are promising candidates for the next generation of rechargeable batteries, but the side reactions and poor cycling stability limit their applications. Here, the authors show a versatile ionic liquid with functional groups that can address both issues for cells operated in oxygen and air.
