  "textContent": "A research team affiliated with UNIST has demonstrated that liquid electrolytes, when frozen, can still facilitate lithium-ion conduction sufficient for battery operation—challenging the traditional view that electrolytes must be in liquid form to function. The study also revealed the mechanism of lithium-ion transfer in organic ice electrolytes, opening new possibilities for developing solid-like electrolytes for lithium metal batteries (LMBs).",
