Ionic Conduction Mechanism and Design of Metal-Organic Framework Based Quasi-Solid-State Electrolytes.

ABSTRACT: We report the theoretical and experimental investigation of two polyoxometalate-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), [(MnMo₆)₂(TFPM)]_imine and [(AlMo₆)₂(TFPM)]_imine, as quasi-solid-state electrolytes. Classical molecular dynamics coupled with quantum chemistry and grand canonical Monte Carlo are utilized to model the corresponding diffusion and ionic conduction in the two materials. Using different approximate levels of ion diffusion behavior, the primary ionic conduction mechanism was identified as solvent-assisted hopping (>77%). Detailed static and dynamic solvation structures were obtained to interpret Li⁺ motion with high spatial and temporal resolution. A rationally designed noninterpenetrati
