Al-S batteries with high reversibility: In this article, we demonstrate a highly reversible aluminum-sulfur (Al−S) battery with Al 2 S 3 as the cathode. The Al 2 S 3 undergoes a faster solid (Al 2 S 3) to liquid (polysulfides) conversion than that of the S cathode that undergoes a slow kinetic process of solid-state conversion reaction (S↔Al 2 …
