Stabilization of polysulfides via lithium bonds for Li–S batteries

Abstract

One of the most vexing challenges in Li–S batteries is the polysulfide shuttle. Using a combined theoretical and experimental approach, we show that g-C3N4 coated carbon can provide effective anchoring sites for lithium polysulfides, potentially having implications for the design of electrodes for practical Li–S batteries.
