CS-CNTs homojunctions prepared bygrowth of carbon nanotubes on the surface of porous carbon spheres for lithium-sulfur batteries.

Lithium-sulfur battery is expected to become a new generation of commercial battery owing to its ultra-high theoretical specific capacity, low-cost, and environmental benign. However, the inherent insulation of sulfur and the shuttle effect of lithium polysulfide between electrodes limit the application of lithium-sulfur battery. In order to solve these problems, we focus on the design of carbon-sulfur composite structure.
