Abstract Detrimental lithium polysulfide (LiPS) shuttle effects and sluggish electrochemical conversion kinetics in lithium‐sulfur (Li‐S) batteries severely hinder their practical application. Separator modification has been extensively investigated as an effective strategy to address above issues. Nevertheless, the case of functional separators, how effectively block LiPSs from diffusion while enabling rapid Li ion transport remains a challenge. Herein, by using “oxidation‐etching” method,...
