Developing highly efficient anchoring materials with strong adsorption to lithium polysulfides to suppress 'shuttling effect' is crucial to address the short cycling life issue of lithium sulfur batteries. Herein, we system-atically investigated transition metal, nitrogen co-doped graphene as host materials for sulfur cathode via first -principles study. The computation results reveal that TM2-N-C materials have higher adsorption energy to lithium polysulfides than TM-N-C materials. Fe2-N-C is one of the most promising anchoring materials, where robust Fe-S and N-Li bonds ensure the stable adsorption of all LiPSs.
