Applications of MoS₂ in Li–O₂ Batteries: Development and Challenges

Abstract

In the past few decades, MoS2-based electrodes for lithium–oxygen (Li–O2) batteries have raised great interest and achieved significant progress as a result of their tunable physical structures and electronic properties. This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary on the recent development of MoS2 for Li–O2 batteries, under the view of structural design and electronic structure modulation. Moreover, the correlation between the structural feature and the catalytic performance is emphatically discussed. Finally, the remaining challenges on the future development of advanced MoS2-based electrodes for Li–O2 batteries are also highlighted. This review could provide valuable insights for the rational design of MoS2-based electrodes for Li–O2 batteries and beyond.
