title: Suppressing Self-Discharge and Shuttle Effect of Lithium-Sulfur Batteries with V2O5-Decorated Carbon Nanofiber Interlayer.
abstract: V2O5decorated carbon nanofibers (CNFs) are prepared and used as a multifunctional interlayer for a lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery. V2O5anchored on CNFs can not only suppress the shuttle effect of polysulfide by the strong adsorption and redox reaction, but also work as a high-potential dam to restrain the self-discharge behavior in the battery. As a result, Li-S batteries with a high capacity and long cycling life can be stored and rested for a long time without obvious capacity fading.
