      abstract     = {Lithium–sulfur batteries are one of the most promising
                      alternatives for advanced battery systems due to the merits
                      of extraordinary theoretical specific energy density,
                      abundant resources, environmental friendliness, and high
                      safety. However, the sluggish sulfur reduction reaction
                      (SRR) kinetics results in poor sulfur utilization, which
                      seriously hampers the electrochemical performance of Li–S
                      batteries. It is critical to reveal the underlying reaction
                      mechanisms and accelerate the SRR kinetics. Herein, the
                      critical issues of SRR in Li–S batteries are reviewed. The
                      conversion mechanisms and reaction pathways of sulfur
                      reduction are initially introduced to give an overview of
                      the SRR. Subsequently, recent advances in catalyst materials
                      that can accelerate the SRR kinetics are summarized in
                      detail, including carbon, metal compounds, metals, and
                      single atoms. Besides, various characterization approaches
                      for SRR are discussed, which can be divided into three
                      categories: electrochemical measurements, spectroscopic
                      techniques, and theoretical calculations. Finally, the
                      conclusion and outlook part gives a summary and proposes
                      several key points for future investigations on the
                      mechanisms of the SRR and catalyst activities. This review
                      can provide cutting-edge insights into the SRR in Li–S
                      batteries.},
