Sulfur–TiO2 yolk-shell cathode for Li-sulfur battery shows best long-cycle performance so far

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Stanford University and SLAC led by Stanford associate professor Yi Cui have used a sulfur–TiO 2 yolk–shell design for a cathode material for a lithium-sulfur battery that achieved an initial specific capacity of 1,030?mAh?g This is the highest performing sulfur cathode in the world, as far as we know.

Argonne researchers advancing new class of selenium sulfide composite cathodes that could boost Li-ion energy density 5x

Green Car Congress

New composite materials based on selenium (Se) sulfides used as the cathode in a rechargeable lithium-ion battery could increase Li-ion density five times, according to research carried out at the US Department of Energy’s Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory.
