Abstract
Using quasielastic neutron scattering in the temperature range from 290 to 350 K, we show that the diffusive motions in a room temperature ionic liquid [H2NC(dma)2][BETI] become faster for a fraction of cations when the liquid is confined in a mesoporous carbon. This applies to both the localized and long-range translational diffusive motions of the highly mobile cations, although the former exhibit an unusual trend of slowing-down as the temperature is increased, until the localized diffusivity is reduced to the bulk ionic liquid value at a temperature of 350 K.
