Frontispiece: Artificial Lithium Channels Built from Polymers with Intrinsic Microporosity

Abstract

Polymers with intrinsic microporosity have been pioneered by Huaqiang Zeng et al. in their Research Article (e202418304) as a compelling platform for constructing artificial lithium ion channels. These Li⁺ channels achieve exceptionally high Li⁺ transport rates coupled with exceptional selectivity. Remarkably, their transport properties can be precisely tuned by adjusting the synthesis temperature, presenting a versatile strategy for optimizing performance.
