Schematic showing the chemical reduction reaction of one Li 2 S 6 molecule by lithium to form six Li 2 S molecules, involving the diffusion/driving of lithium out of the graphene layers in the graphite. The approach offers a new way to introduce lithium into the cathode in Li?S air, or Li?organic Lithium-sulfur (Li?S)
