▎ 摘 要
Carbon materials have a range of properties such as high electrical conductivity, high specific surface area, and mechanical flexibility are relevant for electrochemical applications. Carbon materials are utilized in energy conversion-and-storage devices along with electrolytes of complementary properties. In this work, we study the interaction of highly concentrated electrolytes (ionic liquids) at a model carbon surface (circum-coronene) using density functional theory methods. Our results indicate the decisive role of the dispersion interactions that noticeably strengthen the circumcoronene-ion interaction. Also, we focus on the adsorption of halide anions as the electrolytes containing these ions are promising for practical use in supercapacitors and solar cells.
