  bibo_abstract:
  - Large overpotentials upon discharge and charge of Li-O2 cells have motivated extensive
    research into heterogeneous solid electrocatalysts or non-carbon electrodes with
    the aim to improve rate capability, round-trip efficiency and cycle life. These
    features are equally governed by parasitic reactions, which are now recognized
    to be caused by the highly reactive singlet oxygen (1O2). However, the link between
    the presence of electrocatalysts and 1O2 formation in metal-O2 cells is unknown.
    Here, we show that, compared to pristine carbon black electrodes, a representative
    selection of electrocatalysts or non-carbon electrodes (noble metal, transition
    metal compounds) may both slightly reduce or severely increase the 1O2 formation.
    The individual reaction steps, where the surfaces impact the 1O2 yield are deciphered,
    showing that 1O2 yield from superoxide disproportionation as well as the decomposition
    of trace H2O2 are sensitive to catalysts. Transition metal compounds in general
    are prone to increase 1O2.@eng
