When the battery is fully discharged, both tanks hold the same electrolyte solution: a mixture of the positively charged zinc ions, Zn2 +, and negatively charged
iodide ion, I -.
Under intense illumination, the researchers found that
iodide ions — atoms stripped of an electron so they carry an electric charge — migrated away from the illuminated region, and in the process apparently swept away most of the defects in that region along with them.
The researchers analyzed the resulting simulations and determined that when chloride or
iodide ions were added into bulk water, the molecules formed a cage or solvation shell around the ion.
