A new Li insertion cathode for ambient temperature secondary lithium batteries, namely, MoSe/sub 3/S, has been identified and characterized. It exhibits a specific capacity of approximately 4 Li per mole of the chalcogenide. The discharge behavior of Li/MoSe/sub 3/S cells at various temperatures and their rechargeability have been assessed utilizing THF:2Me-TH:F/LiAsF/sub 6/ and PC/LiClO/sub 4/ electrolyte solutions. The quasi-theoretical specific energy of 380 Wh/kg realized with a practical MoSe/sub 3/S electrode compares favorably with that in a Li/TiS/sub 2/ cell.
