摘      要：Metal-sulfur batteries are recognized as a promising candidate for next generation electrochemical energy storage systems owing to their high theoretical energy density,low cost and environmental ***,sluggish redox kinetics of sulfur species and the shuttle effect lead to large polarization and severe capacity *** approaches from physical barrier,chemical adsorption strategies to electrocatalysts have been tried to solve these issues and pushed the rate and cycle performance of sulfur electrodes to higher *** recently,single-atom catalysts(SACs)with high catalytic efficiency have been introduced into metal-sulfur systems to achieve fast redox kinetics of sulfur *** this review,we systematically summarize the current progress on SACs for sulfur electrodes from aspects of synthesis,characterization and electrochemical *** and potential solutions for designing SACs for high-performance sulfur electrodes are discussed.
