The researchers achieved this progress by using high-resolution 3D imaging to learn more about how the conductive carbon network—essentially, the electrode—functions and interacts with electrolytes. Equipped with their new understanding, the team experimented with different electrolytes and their concentrations. “We found that there is a wide range of…
