Theoretical Approaches to Describing the Oxygen Reduction Reaction Activity of Single-Atom Catalysts

TL;DR: Single-atom catalysts have recently emerged as promising low-cost alternatives to Pt for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) given the unique properties that distinguish these systems from traditi...
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-Consistent Calculation of Molecular Chemisorption on Metals

TL;DR: In this article, a model with H2 standing upright on a jellium surface was used to study the reactivity of metals and their ability to break chemical bonds, and data for the adsorbate-induced electron structure and potential energy curves with substrate parameters characteristic for Al, Mg and Na were presented.

Guest–host interactions of arenes in H-ZSM-5 and their impact on methanol-to-hydrocarbons deactivation processes

TL;DR: In this article, the BEEF-vdW functional analysis of H-ZSM-5 was applied to the complete unit cell of a methanol-to-hydrocarbons (MTH) conversion, and it was shown that polycyclic arenes grow in the straight channels near the outer surface of the zeolite crystal.

Al-Air Batteries: Fundamental Thermodynamic Limitations from First-Principles Theory.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a detailed thermodynamic study of the Al-air battery using density functional theory and show that the maximum open-circuit potential of the battery is only −1.87 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode at pH 14.6 instead of the traditionally assumed −2.34 V.
