Kinetic insight into perovskite La0.8Sr0.2VO3 nanofibers as an efficient electrocatalytic cathode for high‐rate LiO2 batteries
Abstract Efficient electrocatalysis at the cathode is essential for overcoming the limitations of LiO2 batteries such as poor stability and low rate capability.

| Sumario: | Abstract Efficient electrocatalysis at the cathode is essential for overcoming the limitations of LiO2 batteries such as poor stability and low rate capability. Herein, we systematically studied the kinetic behavior of a LiO2 battery comprising perovskite La0.8Sr0.2VO3 nanofibers formed by partial Sr‐cation doping and V cations with multiple oxidation states. Compared with undoped LaVO3 and La0.8Sr0.2VO4 nanofibers, perovskite La0.8Sr0.2VO3 nanofibers exhibited an improved capacity of 2000 mA g−1, and a 20‐times‐longer cycle life in LiO2 batteries. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, and photoluminescence analyses revealed that the performance variations mainly originated from crystal defects, which modulate oxygen reduction/evolution kinetics. Through in situ Raman analysis, we showed that these structural defects are closely related to the oxygen reduction/evolution behavior of La0.8Sr0.2VO3 nanofibers and result in fewer parasitic reactions. This study offers insights into the potential rate capability of LiO2 batteries and related devices. |
