REDOX ACTIVE REVERSIBLE ELECTRODE AND SECONDARY BATTERY INCLUDING THE SAME

摘要

A redox-active reversible electrode has a redox-active film on a surface of an electrically conductive substrate. The redox-active film includes a redox-active sulfur-containing substance which has at least one aromatic ring and a ring containing at least one disulfide bond, with a side of the disulfide-containing ring constituting a side of the aromatic ring, and which has a property that it is capable of reversibly releasing and receiving one or more electrons per disulfide-containing ring without the disulfide-containing ring being opened.
