Covers potential energy storage (rechargeable batteries and
supercapacitors) and energy conversion (solar cells and fuel cells)
materials. Develops theoretical predictions and experimental
observations under a unified quasi-particle framework. Illustrate
up-to-date calculation results and experimental measurements.
Describes successful synthesis, fabrication, and measurements, as
well as potential applications and near future challenges.
Diverse Quasiparticle Properties of Emerging Materials:
First-Principles Simulations thoroughly explores the rich and
unique quasiparticle properties of emergent materials through a
VASP-based theoretical framework. Evaluations and analyses are
conducted on the crystal symmetries, electronic energy spectra/wave
functions, spatial charge densities, van Hove singularities,
magnetic moments, spin configurations, optical absorption
structures with/without excitonic effects, quantum transports, and
atomic coherent oscillations. Key Features Illustrates various
quasiparticle phenomena, mainly covering orbital hybridizations and
spin-up/spin-down configurations Mainly focuses on electrons and
holes, in which their methods and techniques could be generalized
to other quasiparticles, such as phonons and photons Considers such
emerging materials as zigzag nanotubes, nanoribbons, germanene,
plumbene, bismuth chalcogenide insulators Includes a section on
applications of these materials This book is aimed at professionals
and researchers in materials science, physics, and physical
chemistry, as well as upper-level students in these fields.
Highlights Li-ion batteries and Na-ion batteries, as well as
lithium sulfur-, aluminum-, and iron-related batteries Describes
advanced battery materials and their fundamental properties
Addresses challenges to improving battery performance Develops
theoretical predictions and experimental observations under a
unified quasi-particle framework Targets core issues like stability
and efficiencies
Due to its physical, chemical, and material properties, graphene
has been widely studied both theoretically and experimentally since
it was first synthesized in 2004. This book explores in detail the
most up-to-date research in graphene-related systems, including
few-layer graphene, sliding bilayer graphene, rippled graphene,
carbon nanotubes, and adatom-doped graphene, among others. It
focuses on the structure-, stacking-, layer-, orbital-, spin- and
adatom-dependent essential properties, in which single- and
multi-orbital chemical bondings can account for diverse phenomena.
Geometric and Electronic Properties of Graphene-Related Systems:
Chemical Bonding Schemes is excellent for graduate students and
researchers, but understandable to undergraduates. The detailed
theoretical framework developed in this book can be used in the
future characterization of emergent materials.
Structure- and Adatom-Enriched Essential Properties of Graphene
Nanoribbons offers a systematic review of the feature-rich
essential properties in emergent graphene nanoribbons, covering
mainstream theoretical and experimental research. It includes a
wide range of 1D systems; namely, armchair and zigzag graphene
nanoribbons with and without hydrogen terminations, curved and
zipped graphene nanoribbons, folded graphene nanoribbons, carbon
nanoscrolls, bilayer graphene nanoribbons, edge-decorated graphene
nanoribbons, and alkali-, halogen-, Al-, Ti, and Bi-absorbed
graphene nanoribbons. Both multiorbital chemical bondings and spin
arrangements, which are responsible for the diverse phenomena, are
explored in detail. First-principles calculations are developed to
thoroughly describe the physical, chemical, and material phenomena
and concise images explain the fundamental properties. This book
examines in detail the application and theory of graphene
nanoribbons, offering a new perspective on up-to-date mainstream
theoretical and experimental research.
