This study reports the development of a high capacity, long-term cyclability, and low-cost non-aqueous Li-O-2 battery, and reveals the influence of catalyst's porosity and structure on battery performance. The results show the potential of Li-O-2 batteries as low-cost energy systems with high energy density and power density.
High energy density carbon-neutral electrochemical systems are highly sought after for next-generation energy technologies, and lithium-oxygen (Li-O-2) battery occupies a unique position in them. Here, we report the development of a high capacity (9000 mAh g(-1)), long-term cyclability (> 60 cycles), low-cost (iron and carbon) catalyst based non-aqueous Li-O-2 battery and unravel the role of the catalyst's porosity and structure in the battery performance. A scalable catalyst, named FeNxCy (S/S), is shown as the bifunctional catalyst at the cathode of the cell, where FeNxCy(S/S) has a unique structure constituted by nitrogen doped iron carbide nanoparticles decorated graphitic carbon spheres connected via graphitic sheets. The mechanism of the growth of discharged product in correlation with the high surface area and mesoporosity in FeNxCy (S/S) are studied using in situ Raman and ex situ XRD studies. The study shows the potential of Li-O-2 batteries as low-cost energy systems having high energy density (2920 Wh kgLi(2)O(2)(-1)) and power density (18 mW cm(-2)) values that are close to their theoretical limits.
