Lithium ion batteries have reshaped our life with their omnipresence in portable electronics. However, increasing the specific energy of these batteries is reaching its limit and high-profile fire accidents (e.g. cell phones spontaneously combusting) cast doubt of their applications in electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage. Intrinsically safe batteries such as aqueous batteries and all-solid-state batteries are being actively studied in the battery community but also faced with several challenges. In this paper, we review our recent progress on the electrolyte-dictated materials design of organic redox materials as potent enablers for aqueous and solid-state electrolytes/batteries.
