Structure-dynamic properties relationships in poly(ethylene oxide)/silicon dioxide nanocomposites: dielectric relaxation study

F. Mohamed et al.

Summary: Films of polyethylene oxide filled with silicon dioxide were synthesized using the casting method. The addition of SiO2 to PEO increased amorphousity and disrupted the crystalline phase. The dielectric relaxation spectra of PEO were affected by the presence of SiO2, leading to changes in molecular relaxation processes and a decrease in the motion of PEO segments. The terahertz waves passing through PEO/SiO2 samples were also influenced by the presence of SiO2, resulting in weakened, broadened, and red-shifted resonant peaks.

Su Wang et al.

Summary: In this study, an easy-to-construct polymer/inorganic composite solid-state electrolyte (CSSE) was developed by integrating LLZO ceramics into PEO to inhibit the growth of Li dendrites and widen the electrochemical stability window.
