In practice, large polarization and consequent low energy efficiency currently still hinder the application of Li–O2batteries, which mainly results from the sluggish electrochemical reaction kinetics of oxygen diffusion electrodes in aprotic electrolytes [5]. On one hand, oxygen reduction reaction (ORR)in aprotic electrolytes is intrinsically sluggish due to the difficult charge transfer, the low solubility of oxygen.展开更多
