主　　题：Lithium-sulfur batteries Lithium polysulfides Liquid-solid deposition Supersaturation 

摘      要：Lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries have attracted extensive attention due to ultrahigh theoretical energy density of 2600 Wh kg^(-1).Liquid-solid deposition from dissolved lithium polysulfides(LiPSs)to solid lithium sulfide(Li_(2)S)largely determines the actual battery ***,a premature liquidsolid deposition process of LiPSs is revealed at higher thermodynamic potential than Li_(2)S deposition in Li-S *** premature solid deposit exhibits higher chemical state and hemispherical morphology in comparison with Li_(2)S,and the premature deposition process is slower in kinetics and higher in deposition ***,a supersaturation deposition mechanism is proposed to rationalize the above findings based on thermodynamic *** work demonstrates a unique premature liquid-solid deposition process of Li-S batteries.
