Introduction to Lithium-Sulfur Battery
The lithium-sulfur battery has been known as the power storage system and utilizes solar power for charging of the battery in daytime and offers power at night using the solar-charged Li-S batteries. Lithium-sulfur batteries are highly observed because they have three to five times better energy density than LIBs (Choi et al. 2012 ).

Introduction to Lithium Polymer Battery Technology
In 1980 a decisive step was made at the University of Oxford towards a lithium-ion battery. A lithium-cobalt dioxide compound was developed as the material for the positive electrode. Rechargeable batteries based on lithium turned out to offer a three-times greater voltage per cell (3.6 V) over earlier technologies.

Introduction to Lithium–Ion Batteries
Lithium–ion batteries (LIBs) are composed of one negative electrode, one positive electrode, a separator, and a liquid electrolyte battery. The preparation of an electrode is necessary to test electrochemically new materials (see Fig. 1.1a). As the first active material and binder are mixed together, solvent is added to adjust the final viscosity to prepare the electrode.

Introduction to Li-ion Batteries
Like any type of battery, LIBs have three main components; cathode, anode and electrolyte. The basic principle of operation of LIBs is presented in Fig. 1.2.The cathode material in commercial LIBs is a layered oxide, LiCoO 2 while graphite is the widely used anode material. The Li + ions present in the cathode material are to be removed first from LiCoO 2 and
