Abstract

Abstract : The Cover Feature shows the general concept of realizing Arrhenius‐type lithium‐ion conduction in organic electrolytes. The key to achieve such conduction mechanism is the use of thermotropic liquid crystalline single‐ion conductors in which the Li + hopping distance is well defined by the self‐assembling molecules.
