Growing Li <sub>2</sub> O <sub>2</sub> surfaces on discharge cause electrolyte degradation and capacity loss in Li–O <sub>2</sub> batteries
Electrolyte degradation in Li–O 2 batteries arises from reactions with growing Li 2 O 2 surfaces, not superoxide or singlet oxygen, directing future research toward stable solvent design.
