Abstract: | Highly conductive, crystalline, polymer electrolytes, β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD)–polyethylene oxide (PEO)/LiAsF6 and β‐CD–PEO/NaAsF6, were prepared through supramolecular self‐assembly of PEO, β‐CD, and LiAsF6/NaAsF6. The assembled β‐CDs form nanochannels in which the PEO/X+ (X=Li, Na) complexes are confined. The nanochannels provide a pathway for directional motion of the alkali metal ions and, at the same time, separate the cations and the anions by size exclusion. |
