(color online) Electrochemical performances of the QSSE-based Li–O2 battery. (a) Charge-discharge curves measured at a current density of 100 mA/g with discharge cut-off voltage of 2.2 V at 25 °C and 80 °C; (d) EIS spectra of the QSSE-based Li–O2 battery measured before and after the first discharge and charge process. A current density of 100 mA/g with a fixed capacity of 1000 mAh/g was used for Li–O2 cell cycled at 80 °C; typical discharge-charge profiles of Li–O2 cells cycled with a fixed capacity of 1000 mAh/g at (b) 25 °C and (c) 80 °C, respectively; the terminal voltage recorded with Li–O2 cells cycled at (e) 25 °C and (f) 80 °C, respectively.
