Highly active cathode catalysts for efficient formation/decomposition of Li₂O₂ are essential for the performance improvement of lithium-oxygen batteries (LOBs). In this study, a grain-refining Co_0.85Se catalyst with a lattice spacing of 2.69 Å of (101) plane closely matching with the (100) plane (2.72 Å) of Li₂O₂ was applied for high-performance LOBs. Highly (101) plane exposed Co_0.85Se@CNT was synthesized by a simple one-pot hydrothermal method. The Co_0.85Se with the lattice matching effect not only led to the efficient conversion and polarized growth of Li₂O₂, but also prevented the formation of byproducts. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that Co_0.85Se (101) plane has the intrinsic catalytic ability to generate/decompose Li₂O₂ during ORR/OER process, due to its homogeneous electron distribution, suitable adsorption energy, and promoted Li₂O₂ growth kinetics. As a consequence, the (101) plane highly exposed Co_0.85Se@CNT-80 electrode exhibited remarkable cycle stability over 2400 h at 100 mA/g and 290 cycles at 500 mA/g, which is about 2 times longer than other electrodes.
