Abstract
Nonaqueous lithium–air (O2) rechargeable batteries have attracted much attention because of its huge theoretical energy density, which exceeds 1000 Wh/kg. Ether-based electrolytes have been proved to be rather stable for the oxygen reduction reaction at the cathode of lithium–air batteries, showing substantially improved cyclability without apparent side reactions. However, to realize such high energy density in practical applications, multiple lithium–air cells must be densely stacked, similar to the configuration of conventional lithium-ion batteries. This stacking requires a novel design of the cell stack in which air can be supplied to the cathode. We have recently developed an “air-breathing” passive stack of nonaqueous lithium–air batteries, where air is breathed in and out through porous current collectors sandwiched between cathodes. In this seminar, I will discuss the details of cathode reactions and present the results of cell stacking.
