Enhancing Li‐S Battery Performance Through Low‐Concentration Electrolytes with Organic Se/Te Co‐Additives to Address Solubility and Kinetic Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 37, 3 July 2026.
This work presents a low‐concentration electrolyte enabled by hybrid organic Se/Te additives (DPDSe/DPDTe) that restructures solvation, boosts polysulfide dissolution, and provides dual‐site synergistic catalysis, delivering high capacity and stable cycling in Li–S coin and pouch cells, supporting high‐energy, high‐power operation.

Hierarchically Structured CNT@Co‐N‐CNF Interlayers for Enhanced Lithium Polysulfide Confinement in Lithium‐Sulfur Batteries

open access: yesBattery Energy, Volume 5, Issue 4, July 2026.
A hierarchically structured CNT@Co–N–CNF (CCNC) interlayer, made by electrospinning and ZIF‐67‐derived carbonization, synergistically confines lithium polysulfides via a conductive CNT network, N‐doping, and cobalt sites. The optimized 50‐CCNC delivers 1137.4 mAh g − 1 in coin cells and enables pouch cells with 1140.7 mAh and 92.46% retention after 40 ...

Contra‐Diffusion Engineering of Single‐Atom Catalytic Interlayers Enables Reversible Sulfur Redox Chemistry

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 24, 8 June 2026.
A contra‐diffusion strategy is introduced to grow uniformly distributed Co–Nx single‐atom catalysts (CoSAs) within a carbonized aramid nanofiber (CANF) interlayer. The resulting CD‐CANF enables efficient polysulfide regulation, low metal loading, and exceptional long‐term cycling stability in lithium–sulfur batteries. ABSTRACT Achieving durable lithium–
