A Li+-integrated metallohydrogel-based mixed conductive electrochemical semiconductor†
Abstract
A metallohydrogel (STG)-based mixed conductive electrochemical semiconductor has been obtained via LiOH-deprotonation of a pre-gelator (H4STL) followed by treatment with Cd(OAc)2. The gelation mechanism of STG, its mixed ionic–electronic conductive nature and application towards an electrochemical semiconductor were well explored by using various techniques including EIS studies.
