Abstract

The oxygen electrode has been the subject of intense activity for more than 150 years, since the report of the first fuel cell in 1842 by Grove. Recently, there had been a revived interest in the utilization of air as oxidizer in the positive electrode of air secondary batteries, for example, lithium–air batteries. Very high specific energies can be obtained from these systems (at 2 kWhkg-1 of reactant for lithium), and these high numbers justify the present excitement for the lithium–air battery.
