Published: Oct. 22, 2023

Abstract Lithium–sulfur batteries with high energy density are considered to be one of the most promising candidates for next‐generation storage devices. Electrolyte as medium Li + transportation between electrodes, also plays a crucial role in inhibiting dissolution and diffusion lithium polysulfides Li–S batteries. The working mechanism different electrolytes is classified into “solid‐liquid‐solid” “solid‐solid” conversions. Under conversion, would inevitably face challenges such “shuttle effect” that lead poor cycle performance, under they interface mismatch limits utilization sulfur low density, while both conversion mechanisms cause uncontrollable dendrites on anode. According mechanism, can divided ether‐based, ionic liquid‐based, gel polymer electrolytes, polymer‐based solid‐state well carbonate‐based oxide/sulfide‐based conversion.

Abstract Single‐atom decorating of Pt emerges as a highly effective strategy to boost catalytic properties, which can trigger the most active sites while blocking smallest number atoms. However, rational design and creation high‐density single‐atoms on surface remain huge challenge. Herein, customized synthesis surface‐enriched single‐Bi‐atoms tailored nanorings ( SE‐Bi 1 /Pt NRs ) toward methanol oxidation is reported, guided by density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggesting that relatively higher Bi species ensure CO‐free pathway accelerate kinetics *HCOOH formation.
