Rational design of sulfur host materials to supress the dissolution of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) is of great significance to accomplish efficient sulfur chemistry for high-performance lithium sulfur batteries (LSBs). Herein, FeP nanoparticles and Fe single atoms decorated in the N, P co-doped porous carbon prepared by an in-situ self-assembled method followed by pyrolysis process. In addition, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were also incorporated to enhance electrode conductivity. The hierarchical porous structures provide abundant active interfaces for LiPSs conversion as well as rapid Li-ion transfer kinetics. Moreover, by adjusting the Fe precursor ratio, a synergistic coexistence of FeP nanoparticles and Fe single atoms significantly enhanced polysulfide conversion kinetics and suppressed the shuttle effect. The electrochemical performances were conducted using Galvanostatic charging/discharging, cycle voltammetry, and long-term cycle stability.
