Comparison of Tetragonal and Cubic Tin as Anode for Mg Ion Batteries

TL;DR: Using first-principles calculation based on density functional theory, diffusion of Mg atom into α- and β-Sn was investigated and it is found that it is better to use the α-Sn, rather than the β- Sn, as an anode material for Mg ion batteries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large Intercalation Pseudocapacitance in 2D VO2 (B): Breaking through the Kinetic Barrier.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a rational design of atomically thin, 2D nanostructures of VO2 (B) greatly lowers the interaction energy and Li+ -diffusion barrier, and the kinetically sluggish step is successfully enabled to proceed at room temperature for the first time ever.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electronic Modulation of Nickel Disulfide toward Efficient Water Electrolysis.

TL;DR: The electronic modulation of the semiconducting NiS2 by cation doping for advanced water electrolysis is reported, opening up an avenue to engineer low-cost and earth-abundant catalysts performing on par with the noble-metal-based one for water splitting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Computer simulation of electron thermalization in CsI and CsI(Tl)

TL;DR: In this paper, a Monte Carlo (MC) model was developed and implemented to simulate the thermalization of electrons in inorganic scintillator materials, incorporating electron scattering with both longitudinal optical and acoustic phonons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electron-Rich Driven Electrochemical Solid-State Amorphization in Li–Si Alloys

TL;DR: It is found that local electron-rich condition governs the electrochemically driven solid-state amorphization of Li-Si alloys, which provides the fundamental explanation of why lithium insertion in semiconductor and insulators leads to amorphizing, whereas in metals, it leads to a crystalline alloy.
