text: The short history of research on Li-O2 batteries has seen a remarkable number
of mechanistic U-turns over the years. From the initial use of carbonate electrolytes,
that were then found to be entirely unsuitable, to the belief that (su)peroxide
was solely responsible for degradation, before the more reactive singlet oxygen
was found to form, to the hypothesis that capacity depends on a competing surface/solution
mechanism before a practically exclusive solution mechanism was identified. Herein,
we argue for an ever-fresh look at the reported data without bias towards supposedly
established explanations. We explain how the latest findings on rate and capacity
limits, as well as the origin of side reactions, are connected via the disproportionation
(DISP) step in the (dis)charge mechanism. Therefrom, directions emerge for the
design of electrolytes and mediators on how to suppress side reactions and to
enable high rate and high reversible capacity.

text: Singlet oxygen (1O2) formation is now recognised as a key aspect of non-aqueous
oxygen redox chemistry. For identifying 1O2, chemical trapping via 9,10-dimethylanthracene
(DMA) to form the endoperoxide (DMA-O2) has become the mainstay method due to
its sensitivity, selectivity, and ease of use. While DMA has been shown to be
selective for 1O2, rather than forming DMA-O2 with a wide variety of potentially
reactive O-containing species, false positives might hypothetically be obtained
in the presence of previously overlooked species. Here, we first give unequivocal
direct spectroscopic proof by the 1O2-specific near infrared (NIR) emission at
1270 nm for the previously proposed 1O2 formation pathways, which centre around
superoxide disproportionation. We then show that peroxocarbonates, common intermediates
in metal-O2 and metal carbonate electrochemistry, do not produce false-positive
DMA-O2. Moreover, we identify a previously unreported 1O2-forming pathway through
the reaction of CO2 with superoxide. Overall, we give unequivocal proof for 1O2
formation in non-aqueous oxygen redox and show that chemical trapping with DMA
is a reliable method to assess 1O2 formation.

text: Redox mediators could catalyse otherwise slow and energy-inefficient cycling
of Li–S and Li–O2 batteries by shuttling electrons or holes between the electrode
and the solid insulating storage materials. For mediators to work efficiently
they need to oxidize the solid with fast kinetics but with the lowest possible
overpotential. However, the dependence of kinetics and overpotential is unclear,
which hinders informed improvement. Here, we find that when the redox potentials
of mediators are tuned via, for example, Li+ concentration in the electrolyte,
they exhibit distinct threshold potentials, where the kinetics accelerate several-fold
within a range as small as 10 mV. This phenomenon is independent of types of mediator
and electrolyte. The acceleration originates from the overpotentials required
to activate fast Li+/e− extraction and the following chemical step at specific
abundant surface facets. Efficient redox catalysis at insulating solids therefore
requires careful consideration of the surface conditions of the storage materials
and electrolyte-dependent redox potentials, which may be tuned by salt concentrations
or solvents.

text: Capacity, rate performance, and cycle life of aprotic Li–O2 batteries critically
depend on reversible electrodeposition of Li2O2. Current understanding states
surface-adsorbed versus solvated LiO2 controls Li2O2 growth as surface film or
as large particles. Herein, we show that Li2O2 forms across a wide range of electrolytes,
carbons, and current densities as particles via solution-mediated LiO2 disproportionation,
bringing into question the prevalence of any surface growth under practical conditions.
We describe a unified O2 reduction mechanism, which can explain all found capacity
relations and Li2O2 morphologies with exclusive solution discharge. Determining
particle morphology and achievable capacities are species mobilities, true areal
rate, and the degree of LiO2 association in solution. Capacity is conclusively
limited by mass transport through the tortuous Li2O2 rather than electron transport
through a passivating Li2O2 film. Provided that species mobilities and surface
growth are high, high capacities are also achieved with weakly solvating electrolytes,
which were previously considered prototypical for low capacity via surface growth.

text: The inadequate understanding of the mechanisms that reversibly convert molecular
sulfur (S) into lithium sulfide (Li2S) via soluble polysulfides
(PSs) formation impedes the development of high-performance lithium-sulfur (Li-S)
batteries with non-aqueous electrolyte solutions. Here, we use operando small
and wide angle X-ray scattering and operando small angle neutron scattering (SANS)
measurements to track the nucleation, growth and dissolution of solid deposits
from atomic to sub-micron scales during real-time Li-S cell operation. In particular,
stochastic modelling based on the SANS data allows quantifying the nanoscale phase
evolution during battery cycling. We show that next to nano-crystalline Li2S
the deposit comprises solid short-chain PSs particles. The analysis of the experimental
data suggests that initially, Li2S2
precipitates from the solution and then is partially converted via solid-state
electroreduction to Li2S. We further demonstrate that mass
transport, rather than electron transport through a thin passivating film, limits
the discharge capacity and rate performance in Li-S cells.

text: Polydicyclopentadiene (pDCPD), a thermoset with excellent mechanical properties,
has enormous potential as a lightweight, tough, and stable matrix material owing
to its highly cross-linked macromolecular network. This work describes generating
pDCPD-based foams and hierarchically porous carbons derived therefrom by combining
ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of DCPD, high internal phase emulsions
(HIPEs) as structural templates, and subsequent carbonization. The structure and
function of the carbon foams were characterized and discussed in detail using
scanning electron, transmission electron, or atomic force microscopy (SEM, TEM,
AFM), electron energy-loss spectroscopy (TEM-EELS), N2 sorption, and analyses
of electrical conductivity as well as mechanical properties. The resulting materials
exhibited uniform, shape-retaining shrinkage of only ∼1/3 after carbonization.
No structural failure was observed even when the pDCPD precursor foams were heated
to 1400 °C. Instead, the high porosity, void size, and 3D interconnectivity were
fully preserved, and the void diameters could be adjusted between 87 and 2.5 μm.
Moreover, foams have a carbon content >97%, an electronic conductivity of up to
2800 S·m–1, a Young’s modulus of up to 2.1 GPa, and a specific surface area of
up to 1200 m2·g–1. Surprisingly, the pDCPD foams were carbonized into shapes other
than monoliths, such as 10’s of micron thick membranes or foamy coatings adhered
to a metal foil or grid substrate. The latter coatings even adhere upon bending.
Finally, as a use case, carbonized foams were applied as porous cathodes for Li–O2
batteries where the foams show a favorable combination of porosity, active surface
area, and pore size for outstanding capacity.

text: “Hydrogen economy” could enable a carbon-neutral sustainable energy chain.
However, issues with safety, storage, and transport of molecular hydrogen impede
its realization. Alcohols as liquid H2 carriers could be enablers, but state-of-the-art
reforming is difficult, requiring high temperatures >200 °C and pressures >25
bar, and the resulting H2 is carbonized beyond tolerance levels for direct use
in fuel cells. Here, we demonstrate ambient temperature and pressure alcohol reforming
in a fuel cell (ARFC) with a simultaneous electrical power output. The alcohol
is oxidized at the alkaline anode, where the resulting CO2 is sequestrated as
carbonate. Carbon-free H2 is liberated at the acidic cathode. The neutralization
energy between the alkaline anode and the acidic cathode drives the process, particularly
the unusually high entropy gain (1.27-fold ΔH). The significantly positive temperature
coefficient of the resulting electromotive force allows us to harvest a large
fraction of the output energy from the surrounding, achieving a thermodynamic
efficiency as high as 2.27. MoS2 as the cathode catalyst allows alcohol reforming
even under open-air conditions, a challenge that state-of-the-art alcohol reforming
failed to overcome. We further show reforming of a wide range of alcohols. The
ARFC offers an unprecedented route toward hydrogen economy as CO2 is simultaneously
captured and pure H2 produced at mild conditions.

text: Aprotic alkali metal–O2 batteries face two major obstacles to their chemistry
occurring efficiently, the insulating nature of the formed alkali superoxides/peroxides
and parasitic reactions that are caused by the highly reactive singlet oxygen
(1O2). Redox mediators are recognized to be key for improving rechargeability.
However, it is unclear how they affect 1O2 formation, which hinders strategies
for their improvement. Here we clarify the mechanism of mediated peroxide and
superoxide oxidation and thus explain how redox mediators either enhance or suppress
1O2 formation. We show that charging commences with peroxide oxidation to a superoxide
intermediate and that redox potentials above ~3.5 V versus Li/Li+ drive 1O2 evolution
from superoxide oxidation, while disproportionation always generates some 1O2.
We find that 1O2 suppression requires oxidation to be faster than the generation
of 1O2 from disproportionation. Oxidation rates decrease with growing driving
force following Marcus inverted-region behaviour, establishing a region of maximum
rate.

text: Electrodepositing insulating lithium peroxide (Li2O2) is the key process during
discharge of aprotic Li–O2 batteries and determines rate, capacity, and reversibility.
Current understanding states that the partition between surface adsorbed and dissolved
lithium superoxide governs whether Li2O2 grows as a conformal surface film or
larger particles, leading to low or high capacities, respectively. However, better
understanding governing factors for Li2O2 packing density and capacity requires
structural sensitive in situ metrologies. Here, we establish in situ small- and
wide-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS/WAXS) as a suitable method to record the Li2O2
phase evolution with atomic to submicrometer resolution during cycling a custom-built
in situ Li–O2 cell. Combined with sophisticated data analysis, SAXS allows retrieving
rich quantitative structural information from complex multiphase systems. Surprisingly,
we find that features are absent that would point at a Li2O2 surface film formed
via two consecutive electron transfers, even in poorly solvating electrolytes
thought to be prototypical for surface growth. All scattering data can be modeled
by stacks of thin Li2O2 platelets potentially forming large toroidal particles.
Li2O2 solution growth is further justified by rotating ring-disk electrode measurements
and electron microscopy. Higher discharge overpotentials lead to smaller Li2O2
particles, but there is no transition to an electronically passivating, conformal
Li2O2 coating. Hence, mass transport of reactive species rather than electronic
transport through a Li2O2 film limits the discharge capacity. Provided that species
mobilities and carbon surface areas are high, this allows for high discharge capacities
even in weakly solvating electrolytes. The currently accepted Li–O2 reaction mechanism
ought to be reconsidered.

text: 'Lithium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) based water-in-salt electrolytes
(WiSEs) has recently emerged as a new promising class of electrolytes, primarily
owing to their wide electrochemical stability windows (~3–4 V), that by far exceed
the thermodynamic stability window of water (1.23 V). Upon increasing the salt
concentration towards superconcentration the onset of the oxygen evolution reaction
(OER) shifts more significantly than the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) does.
The OER shift has been explained by the accumulation of hydrophobic anions blocking
water access to the electrode surface, hence by double layer theory. Here we demonstrate
that the processes during oxidation are much more complex, involving OER, carbon
and salt decomposition by OER intermediates, and salt precipitation upon local
oversaturation. The positive shift in the onset potential of oxidation currents
was elucidated by combining several advanced analysis techniques: rotating ring-disk
electrode voltammetry, online electrochemical mass spectrometry, and X-ray photoelectron
spectroscopy, using both dilute and superconcentrated electrolytes. The results
demonstrate the importance of reactive OER intermediates and surface films for
electrolyte and electrode stability and motivate further studies of the nature
of the electrode.'

text: Redox mediators could catalyse otherwise slow and energy-inefficient cycling
of Li-S and Li-O 2 batteries by shuttling electrons/holes between the electrode
and the solid insulating storage materials. For mediators to work efficiently
they need to oxidize the solid with fast kinetics yet the lowest possible overpotential.
Here, we found that when the redox potentials of mediators are tuned via, e.g.,
Li + concentration in the electrolyte, they exhibit distinct threshold potentials,
where the kinetics accelerate several-fold within a range as small as 10 mV. This
phenomenon is independent of types of mediators and electrolyte. The acceleration
originates from the overpotentials required to activate fast Li + /e – extraction
and the following chemical step at specific abundant surface facets. Efficient
redox catalysis at insulating solids requires therefore carefully considering
the surface conditions of the storage materials and electrolyte-dependent redox
potentials, which may be tuned by salt concentrations or solvents.

text: Insufficient understanding of the mechanism that reversibly converts sulphur
into lithium sulphide (Li2S) via soluble polysulphides (PS) hampers the realization
of high performance lithium-sulphur cells. Typically Li2S formation is explained
by direct electroreduction of a PS to Li2S; however, this is not consistent with
the size of the insulating Li2S deposits. Here, we use in situ small and wide
angle X-ray scattering (SAXS/WAXS) to track the growth and dissolution of crystalline
and amorphous deposits from atomic to sub-micron scales during charge and discharge.
Stochastic modelling based on the SAXS data allows quantification of the chemical
phase evolution during discharge and charge. We show that Li2S deposits predominantly
via disproportionation of transient, solid Li2S2 to form primary Li2S crystallites
and solid Li2S4 particles. We further demonstrate that this process happens in
reverse during charge. These findings show that the discharge capacity and rate
capability in Li-S battery cathodes are therefore limited by mass transport through
the increasingly tortuous network of Li2S / Li2S4 / carbon pores rather than electron
transport through a passivating surface film.

with an electrode approaching the cathodic (reductive) stability, cycling stability

text: The goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 °C requires a drastic reduction
in CO2 emissions across many sectors of the world economy. Batteries are vital
to this endeavor, whether used in electric vehicles, to store renewable electricity,
or in aviation. Present lithium-ion technologies are preparing the public for
this inevitable change, but their maximum theoretical specific capacity presents
a limitation. Their high cost is another concern for commercial viability. Metal–air
batteries have the highest theoretical energy density of all possible secondary
battery technologies and could yield step changes in energy storage, if their
practical difficulties could be overcome. The scope of this review is to provide
an objective, comprehensive, and authoritative assessment of the intensive work
invested in nonaqueous rechargeable metal–air batteries over the past few years,
which identified the key problems and guides directions to solve them. We focus
primarily on the challenges and outlook for Li–O2 cells but include Na–O2, K–O2,
and Mg–O2 cells for comparison. Our review highlights the interdisciplinary nature
of this field that involves a combination of materials chemistry, electrochemistry,
computation, microscopy, spectroscopy, and surface science. The mechanisms of
O2 reduction and evolution are considered in the light of recent findings, along
with developments in positive and negative electrodes, electrolytes, electrocatalysis
on surfaces and in solution, and the degradative effect of singlet oxygen, which
is typically formed in Li–O2 cells.

text: "With the lithium-ion technology approaching its intrinsic limit with graphite-based
anodes, lithium metal is recently receiving renewed interest from the battery
community as potential high capacity anode for next-generation rechargeable batteries.
In this focus paper, we review the main advances in this field since the first
attempts in the\r\nmid-1970s. Strategies for enabling reversible cycling and avoiding
dendrite growth are thoroughly discussed, including specific applications in all-solid-state
(polymeric and inorganic), Lithium-sulphur and Li-O2 (air) batteries. A particular
attention is paid to review recent developments in regard of prototype manufacturing
and current state-ofthe-art of these battery technologies with respect to the
2030 targets of the EU Integrated Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET-Plan)
Action 7."

text: "Here, we employ micro- and nanosized cellulose particles, namely paper fines
and cellulose\r\nnanocrystals, to induce hierarchical organization over a wide
length scale. After processing\r\nthem into carbonaceous materials, we demonstrate
that these hierarchically organized materials\r\noutperform the best materials
for supercapacitors operating with organic electrolytes reported\r\nin literature
in terms of specific energy/power (Ragone plot) while showing hardly any capacity\r\nfade
over 4,000 cycles. The highly porous materials feature a specific surface area
as high as\r\n2500 m2ˑg-1 and exhibit pore sizes in the range of 0.5 to 200 nm
as proven by scanning electron\r\nmicroscopy and N2 physisorption. The carbonaceous
materials have been further investigated\r\nby X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
and RAMAN spectroscopy. Since paper fines are an\r\nunderutilized side stream
in any paper production process, they are a cheap and highly available\r\nfeedstock
to prepare carbonaceous materials with outstanding performance in electrochemical\r\napplications. "

text: We show the synthesis of a redox‐active quinone, 2‐methoxy‐1,4‐hydroquinone
(MHQ), from a bio‐based feedstock and its suitability as electrolyte in aqueous
redox flow batteries. We identified semiquinone intermediates at insufficiently
low pH and quinoid radicals as responsible for decomposition of MHQ under electrochemical
conditions. Both can be avoided and/or stabilized, respectively, using H 3 PO
4 electrolyte, allowing for reversible cycling in a redox flow battery for hundreds
of cycles.

text: With the lithium-ion technology approaching its intrinsic limit with graphite-based
anodes, Li metal is recently receiving renewed interest from the battery community
as potential high capacity anode for next-generation rechargeable batteries. In
this focus paper, we review the main advances in this field since the first attempts
in the mid-1970s. Strategies for enabling reversible cycling and avoiding dendrite
growth are thoroughly discussed, including specific applications in all-solid-state
(inorganic and polymeric), Lithium–Sulfur (Li–S) and Lithium-O2 (air) batteries.
A particular attention is paid to recent developments of these battery technologies
and their current state with respect to the 2030 targets of the EU Integrated
Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET-Plan) Action 7.
