Summary: This study focuses on the design and failure analysis of a silicon (Si) anode for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The volumetric energy density of the Si anode depends heavily on factors such as Si/C loading, anode calendering density, first-cycle coulombic efficiency, and anode capacity density. Stable Si/C electrode structure is crucial for long-term cycling, and the degree of prelithiation needs to be balanced with cycle life.

Summary: In this work, the excited state dynamics in a WS2/graphene heterostructure are investigated through first-principles calculations, providing insights into the charge and energy transfer mechanisms. It is found that charge transfer is primarily driven by interlayer Auger-like processes due to strong electron-hole interactions, rather than direct interlayer excitations. The electron-phonon coupling is unable to compete with Auger processes due to phonon bottleneck. Additionally, the asymmetrical dynamics are attributed to the difference in density of states of the heterostructure.

The study reveals the bonding hierarchy features and the rattling effect of the BH4 superatom. The contribution of four-phonon processes to the lattice thermal conductivity increases as the temperature rises, and at room temperature, the lattice thermal conductivity is reduced by 24% due to four-phonon interactions.

The method can compute exciton band structures, exciton charge density, ionic forces, the non-adiabatic coupling matrix between excitonic states, and the exciton-phonon coupling matrix. Validations show good agreement with previous GW-Bethe-Salpeter equation and experimental results.

Summary: The frustration in super-ionic conductors enables their high ionic conductivities, which are important for various technological applications. However, analyzing the disordering of atomistic configurations is challenging. By using lithium super-ionic conductors as models, the density of atomistic states (DOAS) analytics is proposed and demonstrated to quantitatively characterize disorder, reveal the energetics of local disorder, and understand how frustration enhances diffusion. Material design strategies aided by DOAS are also devised and demonstrated for new super-ionic conductors. DOAS is a versatile analytic tool for understanding complex atomistic systems and guiding material design.

Summary: We predict a new example of boron-based inverse sandwich alloy clusters, V2B7-, through computational global-minimum structure searches and quantum chemical calculations. Chemical bonding analysis reveals that the inverse sandwich cluster is governed by globally delocalized 6p and 6s frameworks, following the (4n + 2) Huckel rule. The skeleton B-B s bonding is shown to be quasi-Lewis-type, roof-like 4c-2e V-B-2-V s bonds, covering the whole surface of the inverse sandwich cluster in a truly three-dimensional manner.

This study focuses on the phonon interaction and thermal transport in a superatomic crystal called PH4AlBr4, composed solely of superatoms. The results show that the supersalt PH4AlBr4 crystal exhibits amorphous-like ultralow lattice thermal conductivity, and the contribution of four-phonon scattering and phonon coherence play significant roles in the thermal transport. These findings demonstrate the unique features of superatom-assembled materials and provide insights for exploring ultralow thermal conductivity.

Summary: This study demonstrates the improvement of mechanical properties and reduction of coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) in graphene oxide (GO)/epoxy (EP) nanocomposites by enhancing the interface between GO and EP through functionalization and incorporating rigid-flexible interphases. The results reveal that the SiO2-PEA-GO hybrid exhibits better strengthening and toughening effects, as well as lower CTE, compared to the PEA-GO hybrid due to the presence of rigid-flexible interfaces with higher bonding strength and better energy dissipation mechanisms. Additionally, the nanocomposites with longer polyetheramine (PEA) molecules in the rigid-flexible interphases demonstrate higher strength and toughness, while maintaining a lower CTE. This work provides a promising strategy for constructing adjustable flexible-rigid interfacial structures and offers potential in developing GO/EP nanocomposites with high mechanical properties and low CTE.
