Electrolytes are all around us: they are the fluid solvent for life on earth, both within living organisms and surrounding us as oceans and rivers. They are also key ingredients in energy storage devices such as batteries and supercapacitors. Remarkably, fundamental physical chemistry of electrolytes still presents serious challenges to our understanding of the liquid state.
Motivated by various questions from environmental sustainability and energy storage to cellular processes, we carry out experimental research with the aim of understanding the physical chemistry of electrolytes, electrolyte interfaces, and electrolytes in nano-confinement.
