Dedication
The role of teachers in our life definitely started from our home,
school, colleges, and universities time to time; this is an endless
interaction throughout life. A great teacher is warm, accessible,
enthusiastic, and caring. This person is approachable, not only to
students but to everyone in and out of the campus. This is the teacher
to whom students know they can go with any problems or concerns or
even share a funny story.
“This work is truly dedicated to our all beloved teachers whose
teachings continuously help us in illuminating our academic and
moral goals in life.”
Thanks to all teachers;

1.1 Introduction
FIGURE 1.1 Various potential uses of ionic liquids in the field of electrochemical research.
1.2.1 Conductivity
ILs provide several benefits over typical organic solvents, such as
inherent conductivity. ILs are entirely made up of ions, and therefore it
has high conductivity. Interestingly, ionic mobility is reduction of ILs
due to the massive component of ions present in ILs, which results in
1.2.2 Viscosity
Solvent viscosity plays a significant role in electrochemical applica-
tions as viscosity determines the “diffusion-controlled mechanism” in
chemical reactions [46]. Also, the large viscosity of ILs has a substantial
contribution to electrostatic effects [45,46]. Both the cations and anions
of ILs have an impact on the viscosity of ILs. The rise in viscosity is
dependent on the alkyl chain of ILs.
1.4.2 Electrodeposition
Electrodeposition is an essential technique widely utilized in industry
and esthetic anticorrosion for wear-resistant coatings [14]. Generally,
green ILs solvents act as essential electrolytes for the electrodeposition
of metals to minimize the conventional disadvantages of other electro-
deposition techniques. Suryanto et al. [14] demonstrated the electro-
deposition of silver onto metals and metal oxide substrate using protic
ILs. The results revealed that the electrodeposition is achieved by a
three-dimensional growth process controlled by progressive nucleation
and diffusion. Silver nanoparticle as electrocatalysts on electrode exhi-
bits outstanding catalytic activity in the oxygen reduction process.
Further, the study concludes that protic ILs might be an alternate
electrolyte for metal electrodes and nanostructured electrocatalysts.
Motobayashi group has developed a new electrodeposition method of
cobalt (Co) in the presence of IL, which produces interfacial multilayer
of ions [3]. It has been observed that this method generates high overpo-
tential (HOP). HOP helps to reorganize the interfacial multilayer struc-
ture. Fig. 1.3 represents the mechanism of reorganizing the interfacial
multilayer structure. In this mechanism, the anionic first layer is converted
to the cationic first layer via excess anions (Fig. 1.3A). Interestingly, the
interfacial structure B is obtained with high free energy than structure A
or C (Fig. 1.3B and C).

1.4.3 Electroredox
Fontaine et al. developed biredox IL electrolytes (Fig. 1.5) where per-
fluorosulfonate bearing anthraquinone (3) and 4-hydroxy-TEMPO (type
1 and 2) have anion and the cation functionality and both forms ion
pairs (IP1 and IP2) [16]. Also, they conducted extensive studies (experi-
mental and theoretical) to determine the role of redox moiety (contain
bulky ions) in electron and mass transfers in electrochemical devices.
These types of biredox IL electrolytes, having task-specific ions and
redox moieties, show ample opportunities in electrochemical devices.
According to the MarcusHush theory, the size of solvated redox spe-
cies does not affect the electron transfer at the electrode surface.
Fig. 1.6 demonstrates the formation of graphene intercalated ferro-
cene nanocatalyst (rGO-[bmim][FeCl4] IL). This IL-induced synthesis
of nanocatalyst is the first reported technique for the preparation of
FIGURE 1.5 Demonstration of the synthesis method of biredox IL. Biredox IL contains
redox moieties such as cationic and anionic species (denoted as IP1 and IP2).
