Claim 0:
1. A method of thermo-electromechanically activating Li2S, the method comprising:
providing an electrochemical cell including an anode, a composite cathode, and a solid electrolyte disposed between the anode and the cathode, wherein:
the cathode comprises FeS2 or TiS2; and
the solid electrolyte layer comprises Li2S; and

charging the electrochemical cell at a temperature of 30° C. to 60° C., thereby increasing the energy density of the electrochemical cell as compared to the energy density of the electrochemical cell before the charging.
