This study not only provides a fundamental understanding to the high temperature Li-CO 2 nanobatteries, but also offers a valid technique, i.e., discharging/charging at high temperatures, to improve the cyclability of Li-CO 2 batteries for energy storage applications. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that the synergistic effect of temperature and biasing facilitates the decomposition of Li 2CO 3. To promote the decomposition of Li 2CO 3, the charge reactions were conducted at high temperatures, during which Li 2CO 3 was decomposed to lithium with release of gases. During discharge, Li 2CO 3 was nucleated and accumulated on the surface of the cathode media such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and Ag nanowires (Ag NWs), but it was hard to decompose during charging at room temperature. Herein, in-situ environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM) technique was used to study electrochemistry of Li 2CO 3 in Li-CO 2 batteries during discharge and charge processes. Exploring electrochemistry of Li 2CO 3 is critical for improving the performance of Li-CO 2 batteries. However, the electrochemical reaction mechanisms of rechargeable Li-CO 2 batteries, particularly the decomposition mechanisms of the discharge product Li 2CO 3 are still unclear, impeding their practical applications. Rechargeable lithium-carbon dioxide (Li-CO 2) batteries have attracted much attention due to their high theoretical energy densities and capture of CO 2.
