Ionic liquids are important for energy storage and lubrication but their behaviour at electrified interfaces remains elusive. Confined ionic liquids are now shown to exhibit a dramatic change to a solid-like phase pointing to capillary freezing.

限制在金属界面之间的离子液体的纳米级毛细管冷冻和电子屏蔽的作用

离子液体对于能量存储和润滑很重要，但它们在带电界面的行为仍然难以捉摸。现在显示受限离子液体显示出显着变化为指向毛细管冻结的固体状相。
