Lithium-sulfur batteries (Figure 2), like solid-state batteries, are poised to overcome the limitations of traditional lithium-ion batteries (Wang et al., 2023). These batteries offer a high theoretical energy density and have the potential to revolutionize energy storage technologies (Wang et al., 2022).
The energy density of the traditional lithium-ion battery technology is now close to the bottleneck, and there is limited room for further optimization. Now scientists are working on designing new types of batteries with high energy storage and long life span. In the automotive industry, the battery ultimately determines the life of vehicles.
In lithium-oxygen batteries, core–shell materials can improve oxygen and lithium-ion diffusion, resulting in superior energy density and long cycle life . Thus, embedding core–shell materials into battery is a highly effective approach to significantly enhance battery performance , , .
Strategies such as improving the active material of the cathode, improving the specific capacity of the cathode/anode material, developing lithium metal anode/anode-free lithium batteries, using solid-state electrolytes and developing new energy storage systems have been used in the research of improving the energy density of lithium batteries.
In order to achieve high energy density batteries, researchers have tried to develop electrode materials with higher energy density or modify existing electrode materials, improve the design of lithium batteries and develop new electrochemical energy systems, such as lithium air, lithium sulfur batteries, etc.
This is the calculation formula of energy density of lithium secondary batteries: Energy density (Wh kg −1) = Q × V M. Where M is the total mass of the battery, V is the working voltage of the positive electrode material, and Q is the capacity of the battery.
