Abstract: Li-O2 batteries have traditionally used carbon based electrodes (graphite, buckypaper) as the cathode of choice due to its good electrical conductivity, stability against non-aqueous electrolytes like Dimethyl ether (DME) and ease of handling. But, the carbon cathode also leads to formation of carbonate by-products that increase overpotentials during charging leading to degradation of cathode and reduction of cyclability. In this work, we investigate some of the well-known oxides as cathodes …
