C3B monolayer as an anchoring material for lithium-sulfur batteries

The shuttle effect caused by polysufides dissolution and diffusion in electrolyte solutions severely hinders the practical application of LiS batteries. To overcome this problem for achieving long cycle life and high rate performance, anchoring materials are highly desirable. In this work, for the first time, we explore the anchoring behaviors of polysulfides on C3B and C3N monolayers with reference to pristine graphene by using density...
