Mitigating Jahn-Teller Effects by Fast Electrode Kinetics Inducing Charge Redistribution (Adv. Funct. Mater. 19/2022)

Charge Redistribution In article number 2111901, Young Hwa Jung, Hyun-Wook Lee, and co-workers demonstrate that the fast reaction rate activates charge redistribution in manganese hexacyanomanganates, which can mitigate the strong Jahn-Teller effect of high-spin Mn(III) by solving the unequal number of electrons in e(g) orbitals. As a result, the dissolution of Mn is effectively suppressed, inducing improved long-term cyclability in an aqueous electrolyte.
