The carbon/sulfur composite cathodes of lithium sulfur batteries undergo mesostructural evolutions during discharge due to the dissolution/precipitation reactions of solid sulfur and Li2S. Furthermore, the cathode design ...

Since the resurgence of interest in lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries at the end of the 2000s, research in the field has grown rapidly. Li-S batteries hold great promise as the upcoming post-lithium-ion batteries owing to ...

La transición energética es indispensable para la continuidad de los sistemas sociales y ecológicos. La crisis climática es, en esencia, una crisis energética. Para la aplicación práctica de fuentes renovables de energía ...

Lithium-sulfur batteries are presented as a promising alternative for the operation of those devices, including electric vehicles,that require higher specific capacity than current lithium-ion technology. Unfortunately, ...

The interaction of polysulfides with graphene layers substitutionally modified with heteroatoms is analyzed using first-principles calculations, with the aim of using these structures to prevent polysulfide migration in ...

Lithium-ion batteries have enabled electric vehicles to achieve a foothold in the automobile market. Due to an increasing environmental consciousness, electric vehicles are expected to take a larger portion of the market, ...

With a notable advantage in terms of specific capacity (1166 mAh g−1), lithium disulfide (Li2S) has been considered a promising cathode material for high-energy-density lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries. In contrast to pure ...

The commercial development of high-energy lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries is still hampered by the irreversible active material loss and fast capacity decay triggered by the dissolution of polysulfide species and the ...
