Abstract:
A novel Cu3P/Cu heterostructure with heterointerfacial active sites is proposed to reduce the barrier to Li2CO3 decomposition, significantly promoting Li-CO2 battery performance. A Li-CO2 battery with Cu3P/Cu electrocatalyst delivers high discharge capacity of 8361.62 µAh cm-2, long cycling life approaching 800 h, and excellent rate capability.
