The Influence of Catalysts on Discharge and Charge Voltages of Rechargeable Li-Oxygen Batteries

This study revealed the strong influence of carbon, Au/C, and Pt/C catalysts on the charge and discharge voltages of rechargeable Li-O[subscript 2] batteries. Li-O[subscript 2] single-cell measurements showed that Au/C had the highest discharge activity, while Pt/C exhibited extraordinarily high cha...
