Aliovalent doping in an oxide material introduces modifications in the valence state of the host cation and often leads to tailoring the oxygen content in the lattice. Moreover, if the dopant cation is larger than the host cation, the…

The doping of wide gap semiconductors is an interesting problem both from the scientific and technological point of view. A well known example of this problem is the doping of Cu$_2$O. The only element which has produced an order of…

The mechanisms and efficiency of charge transport in lithium peroxide (Li2O2) are key factors in understanding the performance of non-aqueous Li-air batteries. Towards revealing these mechanisms, here we use first-principles calculations to…

We study the hydrogen effect on the electronic, magnetic and optical properties of Cu$_2$O in presence of different dopants (Na, Li and Ti). The electronic properties calculations show that hydrogen changes the conductivity of Cu$_2$O from…

Olivine-type LiFePO$_{4}$ is widely considered as a candidate for Li-ion battery electrodes, yet its applicability in the pristine state is limited due to poor ionic and electronic conduction. Doping can be employed to enhance the…

The lithium-air (Li-O$_2$) battery has received enormous attention as a possible alternative to current state-of-the-art rechargeable Li-ion batteries given their high theoretical specific energy. However, the maximum discharge capacity in…
