A machine learning‐assisted framework optimizes the KCl‐CaCl2‐LiCl ternary electrolyte. The optimized 13:35:52 mol% composition enables Ca‐based liquid metal batteries to operate stably at 480 °C, with >99.5% coulombic efficiency, ultralow self‐discharge, and excellent cycling stability, advancing low‐temperature large‐scale energy storage.

Two‐dimensional CuInP2S6 nanosheets are incorporated into a P(VDF‐TrFE) matrix to induce polarization‐cooperative ferroelectric coupling. The resulting P(VDF‐TrFE)/CuInP2S6 hybrid film exhibits reinforced ferroelectric ordering and reduced coercive electric fields compared with pristine P(VDF‐TrFE).

A high‐entropy strategy is developed to break the trade‐off between low melting point and high ionic conductivity in molten salt electrolytes. By incorporating CsBr and LiF into the LiCl‐LiBr‐KBr system, the quinary LiF‐LiCl‐LiBr‐KBr‐CsBr electrolyte achieves a record‐low melting point of 229.5°C while maintaining a high conductivity of 1.19 S cm−1 at ...

A thermochemically engineered core–shell Si architecture is developed through the controlled evolution of a SWCNT‐coated Mg2Si precursor. The process simultaneously generates a nanoporous Si shell for strain accommodation and Li+ transport, a chemically anchored SiC interfacial layer for robust mechanical and electrical coupling, and a Mg‐containing Si

Weakly solvating CME–TTE and localized high‐concentration G2–TTE electrolytes redirect lithium–sulfur chemistry toward quasi‐solid‐state conversion through distinct coordination environments. Molecular dynamics and multimodal electrochemical and spectroscopic measurements show that G2–TTE couples multidentate solvent coordination, anion participation ...
