“…Among various solid cathode materials, fluorinated carbon (CF x ) has attracted unprecedent attention due to their high theoretical energy density, which is much higher than that of lithium ion batteries (~500 W h kg −1 ) [3]. To fill this short-term technology gap for producing batteries with higher energy densities, several types of nonaqueous metal-gas batteries have been explored to meet growing demands, such as Li-O 2 [4], Na-O 2 [5], K-O 2 [6], Li-CO 2 [7,8], Li-NF 3 [9], and Li-SF 6 [10][11][12]. However, the gas-to-solid conversion reaction involves a solution-mediated electrochemical process that induces complex thermodynamics, kinetics, and transport considerations, and it remains a challenge to achieve the potential energy densities and realize practical applications for these systems.…”
