Abstract:Energy storage is one of the biggest challenges in our way before switching to sustainable energy resources. Batteries can be a viable solution to this challenge if “better” batteries with higher energy density, improved stability and cheap price can be realized. Lithium-oxygen batteries have become popular recently as they can theoretically offer much higher energy densities compared the widely used Li-ion or Ni-Mh batteries. However, realizing Li-O2 batteries is no easy task, because of the electrolyte decom… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
