Ionic Diffusion-Driven Ionovoltaic Transducer for Probing Ion-Molecular Interactions at Solid-Liquid Interface.

ABSTRACT: Ion-solid surface interactions are one of the fundamental principles in liquid-interfacing devices ranging from various electrochemical systems to electrolyte-driven energy conversion devices. The interplays between these two phases, especially containing charge carriers in the solid layer, work as a pivotal role in the operation of these devices, but corresponding details of those effects remain as unrevealed issues in academic fields. Herein, an ion-charge carrier interaction at an electrolyte-semiconductor interface is interrogated with an ion-dynamics-induced (ionovoltaic) energy transducer, controlled by interfacial self-assembled molecules. An electricity generating mechanism from interfacial ionic diffusion is elucidated in terms of the ion-charge carrier interaction, originated fro
