Abstract

Slowing down the shuttle: [email protected] nanocomposites (see TEM images) based on mesoporous, hollow carbon capsules were generated by a template-based approach. As the cathode material in a Li–S secondary battery, they display outstanding electrochemical features attributed to sequestration of elemental sulfur in the carbon capsules and to its favorable effect in limiting polysulfide shuttling as well as to enhanced electron transport from the sulfur. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Supporting Information”. Such documents are peer-reviewed, but not copy-edited or typeset. They are made available as submitted by the authors. Please note: The publisher is not responsible…
