Overcoming the Spin Barrier of Oxygen Redox Chemistry in Lithium-Oxygen Batteries via Metal-Support Magnetic Interaction.
A major bottleneck for the practical application of lithium-oxygen (Li-O2) batteries is the high overpotential resulting from sluggish kinetics of oxygen redox chemistry. This kinetic limitation can rise in part from the spin-state transition barriers in converting triplet oxygen (3O2) into peroxide species, alongside...
