Bifunctional Oxygen Catalyst for Lithium-oxygen Batteries New Progress

Abstract:

"Recently, a team of researcher Wu Zhongshuai from the Research Group on Chemistry and Energy Applications of 2D Materials (Group 508) of the State Key Laboratory of Catalytic Fundamentals at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (DICP), in collaboration with the team of academician Bao Xinhe, has made a new progress in the development of highly efficient and stable bifunctional oxygen catalysts by utilizing the spatial domain-limiting effect to integrate on the surface of graphene advanced oxygen reduction (ORR) catalysts, Pt, and oxygen precipitation (OER) catalyst RuO (Pt/RuO2/G) on the graphene surface, successfully realizing excellent OER/ORR and lithium-oxygen battery performance.
