First-principles study of the oxygen evolution reaction of lithium peroxide in the lithium-air battery

The lithium-air chemistry is an interesting candidate for the next-generation batteries with high specific energy. However, this new battery technology is facing substantial challenges, such as a high overpotential upon charging, poor reversibility, and low power density. Using first-principles calc...
