Aluminium-ion battery
Aluminium-ion batteries are a class of rechargeable battery in which aluminium ions serve as charge carriers.Aluminium can exchange three electrons per ion. This means that insertion of one Al 3+ is equivalent to three Li + ions. Thus, since the ionic radii of Al 3+ (0.54 Å) and Li + (0.76 Å) are similar, significantly higher numbers of electrons and Al 3+ ions …

Lithium-Sulfur Battery
A lithium-sulfur battery attracts much attention because of its high energy density due to the large theoretical capacity (1672 mAh g −1) of sulfur active material (Marmorstein et al., 2000; Ji and Nazar, 2010).However, the Li/S batteries with a conventional liquid electrolyte suffer from rapid capacity fading on cycling. This is mainly because polysulfides formed …
