title = "A photo-curable gel electrolyte ink for 3D-printable quasi-solid-state lithium-ion batteries",
abstract = "3D printing technologies have been adapted to enable the fabrication of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), allowing flexible designs such as micro-scale 3D shapes. Here, we demonstrate 3D-printable gel electrolytes, printed at room temperature. The electrolyte gel solidified by UV irradiation maintains its structural integrity and high lithium-ion conductivity, enabling fully 3D-printed quasi-solid-state LIBs. This journal is ",
