Abstract Lithium‐sulfur batteries (LSBs) are considered a promising next‐generation energy storage device owing to their high theoretical density. However, overall performance is limited by several critical issues such as lithium polysulfide (PS) shuttles, low sulfur utilization, and unstable Li metal anodes. Despite recent huge progress, the electrolyte/sulfur ratio (E/S) used usually very (≥20 µL mg −1 ), which greatly reduces practical density of devices. To push forward LSBs from lab...

The energy density of lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) is currently hampered by modest sulfur loadings and high electrolyte/sulfur ratios (E/S). These limitations can potentially be overcome using easy-to-infiltrate hosts with catalytic materials.
