A new energy storage system: Rechargeable potassium-selenium battery
The newly reported rechargeable potassium-sulfur battery could deliver a capacity of 329.3 mAh g −1 after 50 cycles [15], which is the highest capacity reported to date with potassium metal as anode. The cycling performance of the K-S battery, however, is inadequate, due to the production of polysulfides during cycling and the shuttle effect.
