Abstract
The researchers employed density functional theory (DFT) computations to assess suitability of BP-biphenylene (b-BP) monolayers for application in potassium-ion battery systems. In their evaluations, the researchers considered various factors, like adsorption energy (Ead) of the b-BP monolayer with adsorbed potassium adatoms, in addition to diffusion energy barrier (Ebar) and storage capacity and of potassium ions on this surface. The results indicated that the b-BP monolayer has significantly higher potassium-ion storage capacities, reaching 1026 mAh/g, compared to typical graphite anodes and other carbon materials. The Ebar for potassium ions on the b-BP monolayer was determined to be 0.22 eV. Furthermore, anticipated open-circuit voltage (OCV) values for this material were found to lie within acceptable range of 0.25–1.2 V, making it suitable for use as an anode. These research findings underscore the potential of the b-BP monolayer as an appropriate anode material for potassium-ion battery (KIBs) applications.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids is a well-established international medium for publication of archival research in condensed matter and materials sciences. Areas of interest broadly include experimental and theoretical research on electronic, magnetic, spectroscopic and structural properties as well as the statistical mechanics and thermodynamics of materials. The focus is on gaining physical and chemical insight into the properties and potential applications of condensed matter systems.
Within the broad scope of the journal, beyond regular contributions, the editors have identified submissions in the following areas of physics and chemistry of solids to be of special current interest to the journal:
