Problems solved by technology

[0005] At present, electrocatalysis is often used to catalyze polysulfides to accelerate their conversion and modify lithium-sulfur batteries. However, there is no research on the combination of photocatalysis and electrocatalysis on polysulfides to accelerate the electrocatalysis process.
At the same time, there is no related research on directly introducing solar energy into lithium-sulfur batteries and converting it into electrical energy, thereby saving energy consumption during charging.

Abstract

The invention provides a novel optical gain lithium-sulfur battery and a preparation method thereof. At an opening window in a positive electrode shell, light is creatively introduced into a lithium-sulfur battery system, and a multifunctional catalyst capable of generating a photovoltaic effect is selected to prepare a positive electrode material, so that conversion of soluble polysulfide is accelerated through a photocatalytic mechanism; the problem that the capacity generated by the shuttle effect is low is solved; the preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, performing in-situ growth of array-shaped nano-scale titanium dioxide on a substrate, wherein the array-shaped nano-scale titanium dioxide is used as a main catalyst to perform adsorption catalysis on polysulfide; secondly, growing cadmium sulfide crystals on the titanium dioxide as a cocatalyst to form a heterostructure with the titanium dioxide, generating a photovoltaic effect under illumination, accelerating the conversion of polysulfide by generated photo-generated electrons and photo-generated holes, and reducing the consumption of electric energy in the charging process, thereby improving the performance of the lithium-sulfur battery on the whole.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of new energy, and in particular relates to a novel optical gain lithium-sulfur battery and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Lithium-sulfur battery is an energy storage system with high energy density, which has high development prospects. However, the shuttling effect of polysulfides generated during charge and discharge can lead to a significant decrease in battery cycle performance. Therefore, most of the prior art revolves around how to suppress the shuttle effect. [0003] The main solutions are physisorption, chemisorption, and electrochemical catalysis. Physical adsorption mostly uses carbon materials as the matrix to block the shuttle of polysulfides. Chemisorption mostly utilizes the electrostatic interaction between the adsorption matrix and polysulfides to suppress the shuttle effect. The effect of electrochemical catalysis is usually based on accelerating the conver...
