Accelerated Conversion of Polysulfides for Ultra Long-Cycle of Li-S Battery at High-Rate over Cooperative Cathode Electrocatalyst of Ni0.261Co0.739S2/N-Doped CNTs.


ABSTRACT: Despite the very high theoretical energy density, Li-S batteries still need to fundamentally overcome the sluggish redox kinetics of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) and low sulfur utilization that limit the practical applications. Here, highly active and stable cathode, nitrogen-doped porous carbon nanotubes (NPCTs) decorated with NixCo1-xS2 nanocrystals are systematically synthesized as multi-functional electrocatalytic materials. The nitrogen-doped carbon matrix can contribute to the adsorption of LiPSs on heteroatom active sites with buffering space. Also, both experimental and computation-based theoretical analyses validate the electrocatalytic principles of co-operational facilitated redox reaction dominated by covalent-site-dependent mechanism; the favor
