Ca-dimers, solvent layering, and dominant electrochemically active species in Ca(BH4)2 in THF

Abstract Divalent ions (Mg, Ca, and Zn) are being considered as competitive, safe, and earth-abundant alternatives to Li-ion electrochemistry, but present challenges for stable cycling due to undesirable interfacial phenomena. We explore the formation of electroactive species in the electrolyte Ca(B...
