A Polymer Electrolyte‐Based Rechargeable Lithium/Oxygen Battery
K. M. Abraham,Z. Jiang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a rechargeable Li/O{sub 2} battery is reported, which consists of a conductive organic polymer electrolyte membrane sandwiched by a thin Li metal foil anode, and a thin carbon composite electrode on which oxygen, the electroactive cathode material, accessed from the environment, is reduced during discharge to generate electric power.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Nonaqueous Solvents on the Electrochemistry of Oxygen in the Rechargeable Lithium−Air Battery
TL;DR: In this paper, a fundamental study of the influence of solvents on the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in nonaqueous electrolytes has been carried out for elucidating the mechanism of the oxygen electrode processes in the rechargeable Li−air battery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elucidating the Mechanism of Oxygen Reduction for Lithium-Air Battery Applications
TL;DR: In this paper, the intimate role of electrolyte, in particular the role of ion conducting salts, in determining the reversibility and kinetics of oxygen reduction in nonaqueous electrolytes designed for such applications is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Lithium/Dissolved Sulfur Battery with an Organic Electrolyte
TL;DR: In this article, Li/5M S cells were characterized with regard to capacity, rate, and rechargeability, showing that 75% cathode utilization is possible at 4 mA/cm2 (C/3-C/4 rate).
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly Conductive PEO-like Polymer Electrolytes
TL;DR: In this article, the thermal stability, mechanical strength, conductivity, electrochemical stability window, and Li/electrolyte interface stability of poly(vinylidene fluoride)−hexafluoropropene (PVdF−HFP) copolymer plasticized with a solution of LiSO3CF3, LiN(SO2CF3)2, or LiPF6 in oligomeric poly(ethylene glycol) dimethyl ethers (PEGDME, Mw = 250, 400, and 500).
