Local Conductivity Effects in Polymer Electrolytes
Source abstract
Abstract
Room-temperature area mapping of polymer electrolyte films at the nanoscale reveals considerable heterogeneity, with the positional ionic conductivity varying up to four orders of magnitude. Measurements indicate the presence of a bimodal conductivity distribution (see Figure), with highly conducting regions being amorphous but non-percolating at room temperature.

14. For this study three different concentrations were prepared: [EO]:[Li] = 28:1 14:1 and 7:1 with conductivities 2.1 × 10–7 3.0 × 10–6 and 7.8 × 10–7 Ω–1 cm–1 respectively. The concentration with the highest conductivity ([EO]:[Li] = 14:1) was considered for further investigation.
15. The impedance was independent of the AFM tip force in the range of 0.5–9.0 μN.
