Are lithium-sulfur batteries a good energy storage device?

Lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries are promising energy‐storage devices because of their high theoretical energy densities. However, the practical application of Li–S batteries is still impeded by the poor cycling performance and rate capability at practical conditions.

Is photoassisted charging a viable solution for non-aqueous Li-O 2 batteries?

This concept of ‘photoassisted charging process’ offers a novel strategy to address the overpotential issue of non-aqueous Li–O 2 batteries and also a distinct approach for integrating solar cells and batteries 15, 16, 17, 18. Figure 1a shows the structure of the device, named as solar battery, in this work.

Is a non-aqueous rechargeable lithium-oxygen battery a promising next-generation energy storage technique?

Nature Communications 5, Article number: 5111 (2014) Cite this article With a high theoretical specific energy, the non-aqueous rechargeable lithium–oxygen battery is a promising next-generation energy storage technique.

Does a redox shuttle facilitate oxygen reduction in a lithium air battery?

A redox shuttle to facilitate oxygen reduction in the lithium air battery. Electrochem. Commun. 26, 74–76 (2013). Amine, K., Chen, Z. & Wang, Q. Redox shuttles for overcharge protection of lithium batteries.

What redox couple for TiO 2 solar cells?

For dye-sensitized TiO 2 solar cells, the triiodide/iodide (I 3− /I −) redox couple is a benchmark electrolyte for the dye regeneration 24. Despite being mentioned in a patent 12 and a very recent publication 14, not much attention has been placed on utilizing I 3− /I − redox couple for non-aqueous Li–O 2 batteries.

What are the charging curves of a Li-O 2 battery?

The charging curves of a simple Li–O 2 battery, the Li–O 2 battery with LiI redox shuttle and the solar battery at a current density of (a) 0.016 mA cm −2 and (b) 0.032 mA cm −2. The LiI redox shuttle and photoelectrode significantly reduces the battery charging voltage.
