Abstract

Abstract : Nitrogen doped hollow porous carbon can be obtained using in situ generated CO2 gas bubbles, stabilized via a Pickering emulsion, as template, as describes by Z. W. Chen and co‐workers on page 8408. When applied to a lithium sulfur battery, this material demonstrates stable cycling and high discharge rate. Upon further testing, interesting mass transfer mechanics are revealed.
