Tailoring Pore Size of Nitrogen‐Doped Hollow Carbon Nanospheres for Confining Sulfur in Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Abstract

Three types of nitrogen-doped hollow carbon spheres with different pore sized porous shells are prepared to investigate the performance of sulfur confinement. The reason that why no sulfur is observed in previous research is determined and it is successfully demonstrated that the sulfur/polysulfide will overflow the porous carbon during the lithiation process.
