Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are promising next-generation energy storage technologies due to their high theoretical density, environmental friendliness, and low cost. However, conductivity of sulfur species, dissolution polysulfides, poor conversion from reduction, lithium sulfide (Li2S) oxidation reactions during discharge-charge processes hinder practical applications. Herein, under the guidance density functional theory calculations, we have successfully synthesized large-scale single...
