Physicochemical confinement and catalytic conversion of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) are crucial to suppress the shuttle effect and enhance the redox kinetics of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. In this study, a NH4Cl-assisted pyrolysis strategy is developed to fabricate highly mesoporous N-rich car...
