Because of their high theoretical energy density and low cost, lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries are promising next-generation storage devices. The electrochemical performance Li–S largely depends on the efficient reversible conversion Li polysulfides to Li2S in discharge elemental S during charging. Here, we report our discovery that monodisperse cobalt atoms embedded nitrogen-doped graphene (Co–N/G) can trigger surface-mediated reaction polysulfides. Using a combination operando X-ray...

Lithium-metal anodes are recognized as the most promising next-generation for high-energy-storage batteries. However, lithium dendrites lead to irreversible capacity decay in lithium-metal batteries (LMBs). Besides, strict assembly-environment conditions of LMBs regarded a challenge practical applications.
