Niu X, Feng Y. First-principles study on the effect of torsional deformation on WSe 2 as an anode material for calcium ion batteries. J Mol Model 2024; 30:211.

Abstract
CONTEXT In this paper, the effects of torsional deformation on the electronic properties of intrinsic WSe2 system and Ca-adsorbed WSe2 system were systematically studied by first-principles method. The results show that Ca can be stably adsorbed on the vacancy (H site) of WSe2 surface in all deformation systems, and the adsorption energy of the system without deformation is the highest. Intrinsic WSe2 is a semiconductor with a direct band gap of 1.53 eV. The torsional deformation makes WSe2 change from a direct band gap semiconductor to an indirect band gap semiconductor and finally to a metal property. The adsorption of Ca makes the conduction band of WSe2 move down and increases the number of peaks in the conduction band region. The new density of state peaks are mainly derived from the contribution of W-d, Se-p, and d orbitals of adsorbed atoms in each adsorption system. Mulliken charge analysis shows that Ca transfers most of the valence electrons to the substrate, and the torsional deformation changes the amount of transferred charge. The twist deformation reduces the diffusion barrier of Ca on WSe2 surface from 0.20 to 0.14 eV. The above results provide a basis for the improved application of WSe2 in ion batteries. METHODS In this study, all the first-principles calculations are based on Materials Studio 8.0 software package. The generalized gradient approximation (GGA) functional Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) is used for the electron exchange correlation interactions in all systems. The optimization algorithm uses Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS) to optimize the model structure and calculate the energy. The measured cutoff energy is optimized to 450 eV, and the radius of the vacuum layer in the Z-axis direction is 20 Å. The K-point of 7 × 7 × 1 is selected by Monkhorst-Pack method. The structural optimization criterion is selected, the convergence radius of the force is 0.01 eV/Å, and the displacement radius between atoms is within 0.001 Å distance. The energy convergence radius of each atom is less than 1.0 × 10-6 eV/atom.

Abstract
In the world of two-dimensional (2D) materials, various Borophene allotropes have gained significant attention for their remarkable specific capacity. However, the instability of monolayers has challenged experimental investigations of innovative approaches. Due to this limitation, in this work, graphene was investigated as a sublayer with the aim of providing stability to the β12-borophene monolayer. This study delves into the potential of a novel β12-borophene/graphene (β12-B/G) van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure using Quantum Espresso software based on vdW-corrected density functional theory. Our investigation includes exploring thermal and dynamical stability, adsorption energy, open circuit voltage, specific capacity, and diffusion barrier energy properties. Impressively, the calculated specific capacity reached 907 mAh/g, outperforming other 2D materials and heterostructures. The combination of a graphene layer not only ensures dynamical stability but also provides the adsorption energy of lithiumon the β12-borophene layer, simultaneously decreasing the diffusion barrier energy in comparison with the β12-borophene monolayer. The calculated open circuit voltage falls in the range 0.08-1.09 V, rendering it suitable for an overall average commercial voltage. For the borophene layer, the computed diffusion barrier energies are approximately 0.52 and 0.78 eV. Collectively, these findings underscore the potential of theβ12-B/G heterostructure as an advanced anode material for lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Exploring anode materials with overall excellent performance remains a great challenge for rechargeable Na-ion battery technologies. Herein, we have identified that monolayer TiSi2P4is just such a prospective anode candidate via first-principles calculations. It is showed to be dynamically, thermally, mechanically, and energetically stable, which provides feasibility for experimental realization. The Na diffusion on the its surface is proved to be ultrafast, with a migration energy barrier as low as 73 meV. Electronic structure confirms that the pristine system undergoes a transition from the semiconductor to metal during the whole sodiation process, which is a significant advantage to the electrode conductivity. More excitingly, monolayer TiSi2P4can accommodate up to double-sided five-layer adatoms, resulting in an ultrahigh theoretical capacity of 1176 mA h g-1and a low average open-circuit voltage of 0.195 V. Moreover, the maximally sodiated electrode monolayer yields rather small in-plane lattice expansion of only 1.40%, which ensures reversible deformation and excellent cycling stability as further corroborated by structural relaxation andab initiomolecular dynamics simulation. Overall, all of these results point to the potential that monolayer TiSi2P4can serve as a promising anode candidate for application in high-performance low-cost Na-ion batteries.

Abstract
Using the crystal-structure search technique and first-principles calculation, we report a new two-dimensional semiconductor, ZnSiP2, which was found to be stable by phonon, molecular-dynamic, and elastic-moduli simulations. ZnSiP2 has an indirect band gap of 1.79 eV and exhibits an anisotropic character mechanically. Here, we investigated the ZnSiP2 monolayer as an anode material for K-ion batteries and gas sensing for the adsorption of CO, CO2, SO2, NO, NO2, and NH3 gas molecules. Our calculations show that the ZnSiP2 monolayer possesses a theoretical capacity of 517 mAh/g for K ions and an ultralow diffusion barrier of 0.12 eV. Importantly, the ZnSiP2 monolayer exhibits metallic behavior after the adsorption of the K-atom layer, which provides better conductivity in a period of the battery cycle. In addition, the results show that the ZnSiP2 monolayer is highly sensitive and selective to NO2 gas molecules.

Abstract
Na-, K- and Mg-ion batteries (NIBs, KIBs and MIBs) have drawn considerable interest due to their high abundance and excellent safety. However, the lack of high-performance anode materials is a major obstacle to its development. A metallic SnB planar monolayer is predicted by using the two-dimensional global minimum structure search method of swarm intelligence. Based on first-principles calculations, we proved that the metal SnB monolayer has high binding energy and excellent dynamical, thermal and mechanical stability. It is worth noting that the SnB monolayer has several stable adsorption sites for Na-, K- and Mg-ions, so it has a high theoretical capacity of 620.93, 517.44 and 620.93 mA h g-1, respectively. For Na-, K- and Mg-ion batteries, the low diffusion barriers of the SnB monolayer are 0.22, 0.07 and 0.68 eV, and the low average open circuit voltages are 0.42, 0.49 and 0.23 V, which ensure long service life and fast charging in practical applications. In addition, it is proved that the SnB monolayer maintains excellent conductivity and stability during the charge-discharge process. The results show that the SnB monolayer offers innovative advantages for the development of new two-dimensional planar structures that further advance the development of anode materials for metal ion batteries.

Abstract
Although magnesium rechargeable batteries (MRBs) have gained considerable attention, research relating to MRBs is still in its infancy. One issue is that magnesium ions are difficult to reversibly (de)intercalate in most electrode materials. Among various available cathodes, VO2(B) is a promising layered cathode material for use in MRBs. Totally different from monolayer VO2, the magnesiation mechanism in monoclinic bulk VO2(B) has not been clearly clarified to this day. For the first time, we systematically investigated the influence of magnetism and van der Waals (vdW) forces on the electronic structure and diffusion kinetics of magnesium in bulk VO2(B) using a series of DFT+U calculations. The Mg diffusivity can reach a high value of 1.62 × 10-7 cm2 s-1 at 300 K, which is comparable to Li+. These results demonstrate that VO2(B) is a potential host material with high mobility and fast kinetics.

Abstract
Atomic-level structure engineering is an effective strategy to reduce mechanical degradation and boost ion transport kinetics for battery anodes. To address the electrode failure induced by large ionic radius of K+ ions, herein we synthesized Mn-doped ZnSe with modulated electronic structure for potassium ion batteries (PIBs). State-of-the-art analytical techniques and theoretical calculations were conducted to probe crystalline structure changes, ion/electron migration pathways, and micromechanical stresses evolution mechanisms. We demonstrate that the heterogeneous adjustment of the electronic structure can relieve the potassiumization-induced internal strain and improve the structural stability of battery anodes. Our work highlights the importance of the correlation between doping chemistry and mechanical stability, inspiring a pathway of structural engineering strategy toward a highly stable PIBs.

Abstract
The group 10 transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) (MX 2: M = Ni, Pd, Pt; X = S, Se, Te) have attracted much attention in the last few decades because of observation of exotic phases and phenomena such as superconductivity (SC), topological surface states (TSSs), type II Dirac fermions, helical spin texture, Rashba effect, 3D Dirac plasmons, metal-insulator transitions, charge density waves (CDW) etc. In this review, we cover the experimental and theoretical progress on the physical phenomena influenced by the strong electron-electron correlation of the group-10 TMDs from the past to the present. We have especially emphasized on the SC and topological phases in the bulk as well as in atomically thin materials.

Abstract
Due to the low cost, high element abundance and intrinsic safety, potassium-ion batteries (KIBs) have attracted a surge of interest in recent years. Currently, the key challenge and obstacle to the development of KIBs is to find suitable anode materials with large capacity, high rate capability and small lattice changes during the charge/discharge process. MXenes with excellent energy storage properties are promising anode materials for KIBs and their energy performance largely depends on the surface termination. Here, two-dimensional O- and S-terminated V2C MXene anode materials are designed to model high performance potassium-ion batteries. Using first-principles calculations, the structural properties and potential battery performance in KIBs of V2CO2 and V2CS2 are systematically investigated. The inherent metallic nature, a small diffusion barrier, a low average open circuit voltage, and a high theoretical specific capacity (489.93 mA h g-1 of V2CO2 and 200.24 mA h g-1 of V2CS2) demonstrate that both of them are ideal anode materials for KIBs. Meanwhile, we also investigated the mechanism of the difference in energy performance between V2CO2 and V2CS2 at atomic and electronic levels, in other words, the energy performance difference introduced by surface O- and S-terminations.

Abstract
Atomically thin sheets of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted interest as high capacity electrode materials for electrochemical energy storage devices owing to their unique properties (high surface area, high strength and modulus, faster ion diffusion, and so on), which arise from their layered morphology and diversified chemistry. Nevertheless, low electronic conductivity, poor cycling stability, large structural changes during metal-ion insertion/extraction along with high cost of manufacture are challenges that require further research in order for TMDs to find use in commercial batteries and supercapacitors. Here, a systematic review of cutting-edge research focused on TMD materials beyond the widely studied molybdenum disulfide or MoS2 electrode is reported. Accordingly, a critical overview of the recent progress concerning synthesis methods, physicochemical and electrochemical properties is given. Trends and opportunities that may contribute to state-of-the-art research are also discussed.
