Abstract

Rational design of the sulfur cathode structure enables effective adsorption of polysulfides and accelerates the sulfur reduction reaction, which is of great significance to the practical application of lithium-sulfur batteries. Here, P-doped carbon foam (PCF) as a sulfur host for the lithium-sulfur battery cathode was successfully synthesized by a facile strategy. The tailored hierarchical pore structure combined with P doping not only facilitates Li+ diffusion but also enhances the adsorption and accelerates the catalytic conversion of lithium polysulfides, thus significantly improving lithium storage performance of the PCF/S cathode.
