Journal ArticleDOI

Geant4—a simulation toolkit

S. Agostinelli, +126 more
TL;DR: The Gelfant 4 toolkit as discussed by the authors is a toolkit for simulating the passage of particles through matter, including a complete range of functionality including tracking, geometry, physics models and hits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-Dimensional, Ordered, Double Transition Metals Carbides (MXenes)

TL;DR: In this article, density functional theory is used to predict the existence of two new families of 2D ordered, carbides (MXenes), where M′ layers sandwich M″ carbide layers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of Surface Structure on Li-Ion Energy Storage Capacity of Two-Dimensional Transition-Metal Carbides

TL;DR: L lithiated oxygen terminated MXenes surfaces are able to adsorb additional Li beyond a monolayer, providing a mechanism to substantially increase capacity, as observed mainly in delaminated MXenes and confirmed by DFT calculations and XAS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction and Characterization of MXene Nanosheet Anodes for Non-Lithium-Ion Batteries

TL;DR: In this paper, a class of two-dimensional transition-metal carbides, called MXene nanosheets, are predicted to serve as highperforming anodes for non-lithium-ion batteries by combined first-principles simulations and experimental measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atomic Defects in Monolayer Titanium Carbide (Ti3C2Tx) MXene

TL;DR: The atomic structure of freestanding monolayer Ti3C2Tx flakes prepared via the minimally intensive layer delamination method is determined and it is determined that the Ti vacancy concentration can be controlled by the etchant concentration during preparation.
