摘要
Origins of cathodic stability of an ionic liquid electrolyte, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIBF4) containing lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4), are investigated mainly by applying electrochemical impedance spectroscopy for a glassy-carbon electrode interface. Its Helmholtz layer capacitance in the EMIBF4 electrolyte containingr Li+ becomes much higher than that in neat EMIBF4 with increasing cathodic polarization. On the basis of such analyses as well as our hypotheses, a reasonable mechanism for the stabilizing effect induced by the Li salt addition is discussed.
