Unprecedented strong and reversible atomic orbital hybridization enables a highly stable Li-S battery.
The shuttle effect and excessive volume change of the sulfur cathode severely impede the industrial implementation of Li-S batteries. It is still highly challenging to find an efficient way to suppress the shuttle effect and...

DFT Simulation-Based Design of 1T-MoS2 Cathode Hosts for Li-S Batteries and Experimental Evaluation.
The main challenge in lithium sulphur (Li-S) batteries is the shuttling of lithium polysulphides (LiPSs) caused by the rapid LiPSs migration to the anode and the slow reaction kinetics in the chain of LiPSs conversion. In this...

Structure Prediction of Li--Sn and Li--Sb Intermetallics for Lithium-ion Batteries Anodes.
M Mayo, AJ Morris
Jul 04, 2017
A variety of new stable and metastable Li–Sn and Li–Sb intermetallics are presented using the ab initio random structure searching (AIRSS) and species swapping methods. There include LiSn2–P4/mmm, Li2Sn3–P-1, Li7Sn9–P42/n...

Quantitatively analyzing the failure processes of rechargeable Li metal batteries.
Practical use of lithium (Li) metal for high–energy density lithium metal batteries has been prevented by the continuous formation of Li dendrites, electrochemically isolated Li metal, and the irreversible formation of solid...

Face Dependence of Schottky Barriers Heights of Silicides and Germanides on Si and Ge.
Density functional supercell calculations of the Schottky barrier heights (SBH) of metal germanides and silicides on Si or Ge find that these vary with the facet, unlike those of elemental metals. In addition, silicides and...

Hydrogen and the Light-Induced Bias Instability Mechanism in Amorphous Oxide Semiconductors.
Hydrogen is known to be present as an impurity in amorphous oxide semiconductors at the 0.1% level. Using amorphous ZnO as a simplified model system, we show that the hydrogens pair up at oxygen vacancies in the amorphous...

Extending the metal-induced gap state model of Schottky barriers
Fermi level pinning at Schottky barriers strongly limits the minimization of contact resistances in devices and thereby limits the scaling of modern Si electronic devices, so it is useful to understand the full range of...
