Kinetics of lithium peroxide oxidation by redox mediators and consequences for the lithium–oxygen cell

Lithium–oxygen cells in which lithium peroxide forms in solution rather than on the electrode surface, can sustain relatively high cycling rates but require redox mediators to charge. The mediators are oxidised at the electrode surface and then oxidise lithium peroxide stored in the cathode. The kin...
