Large overpotential and poor cyclability are the main constraints for lithium-oxygen batteries (LOBs), which are usually related to the slow decomposition of the discharge product during oxygen evolution reaction (OER) of charging process. In this paper, a novel method of pulse current charging is developed for solving these problems.
Here, we combine the distribution of relaxation times (DRT) with the distribution of capacitive times (DCT) to identify the timescales of lithium-oxygen battery charging through EIS. In situ differential electrochemical mass spectrometry (DEMS) is used to validate the impedance results.
The charging processes in Li-O2 cells include the evolution of SEI, the competition of the oxidative decompositions of various species (e.g., Li2O2 and Li2CO3), and the pore-clogging issue in the porous composite electrode.
Large overpotential is one of the biggest challenges of Li-O2 batteries, and it is contributed by multiple factors, i.e., surface passivation, sluggish kinetics, poor mass transport, etc. For a better catalyst design, we need to identify the major origin of the overpotential during charging.
In this paper, a novel method of pulse current charging is developed for solving these problems. The results show, compared with the normal constant current samples, when duty cycle is 50% and frequency is 1 Hz and, the overpotential decreases up to 25% and the cycle life improves more than 4 times.
This research can help to accelerate the development of more effective and efficient rechargeable batteries for the general public. Charging lithium-oxygen batteries is characterized by large overpotentials and low Coulombic efficiencies. Charging mechanisms need to be better understood to overcome these challenges.

For the charging process, due to the strong adsorption capacity of PFO for oxygen, PFO adsorbs the generated oxygen upon the decomposition of the ring discharge product Li 2 O 2, resulting in a lower concentration of oxygen on the electrode surface, which is more favorable for the decomposition of Li 2 O 2 during the charging reaction (Li 2 O 2 → O 2 + 2e − + 2Li +).
