I think that it has to do with that first micron of interface -
only this time that interface would be in the liquid, not the
electrode metal. Perhaps a "colloid" is a better term than "liquid"
since the implication is quite different. A colloid would have
nanoparticles, most of which came off the anode originally - each
roughly spherical of perhaps 20-100 bound metal atoms, a slight
positive change, and acting as an "exciton".
And I am a bit surprised that you are in apparent disagreement
I am not in disagreement, but merely pointing out that based on the
principle stated: "They could just as easily employ a liquid lattice
as a metallic one...", the *anode* is the vicinity to engineer for
effect.
At any rate, I think data will soon determine if anything of use is
happening at high voltage cell anodes.
