Journal ArticleDOI

The Brønsted-Evans-Polanyi relation and the volcano plot for ammonia synthesis over transition metal catalysts

TL;DR: Using density functional calculations, the authors showed that there is an essentially linear relationship between the activation energy for N2 dissociation and the binding energy of atomic nitrogen on a range of transition metal surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidation and Photo-Oxidation of Water on TiO2 Surface

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the relative stability of different surface terminations of TiO2 interacting with H2O and analyzed the overpotential needed for the electrolysis and photoelectrolysis of water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transition-metal Doped Edge Sites in Vertically Aligned MoS2 Catalysts for Enhanced Hydrogen Evolution

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a computational descriptor-based approach to predict that by incorporating transition metal atoms (Fe, Co, Ni, or Cu) the S-edge site should also become HER active.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrical conductivity in Li2O2 and its role in determining capacity limitations in non-aqueous Li-O2 batteries.

TL;DR: It is shown that there is a "sudden death" in charge transport when film thickness is ~5 to 10 nm, and the theoretical model shows that this occurs when the tunneling current through the film can no longer support the electrochemical current.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metal ion cycling of Cu foil for selective C–C coupling in electrochemical CO2 reduction

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use density functional theory to determine the initial C-C coupling steps on different Cu facets in CO2 reduction, and suggest that the Cu(100) and stepped (211) facets favour C2+ product formation over Cu(111).
