A lithium–air fuelcell using copper to catalyze oxygen-reduction based on copper-corrosion mechanism

Abstract

The copper-catalyzed O2 reduction in aqueous electrolyte and the Li-anode in organic electrolyte were united together by a ceramic Li-ions exchange film to form a lithium–air fuel cell. The achieved results demonstrate the cycle between Cu and Cu2O can be used to catalyze O2 electrochemical reduction based on the copper-corrosion mechanism.
