Li$_{10}$Ge(PS$_6$)$_2$ (LGPS) is a highly concentrated solid electrolyte, in which Coulombic repulsion between neighboring cations is hypothesized as the underlying reason for concerted ion hopping, a mechanism common among superionic…
The vast amount of computational studies on electrical conduction in solid-state electrolytes is not mirrored by comparable efforts addressing thermal conduction, which has been scarcely investigated despite its relevance to thermal…
In lithium ion batteries, Li+ intercalation and processes associated with passivation of electrodes are governed by applied voltages, which are in turn associated with free energy changes of Li+ transfer (Delta G_t) between the solid and…
Recent experimental studies confirmed that a long searched conventional superconducting phase in graphene can be induced via lithium deposition. However, the canonical character of the lithium-decorated graphene (LiC$_{6}$) superconductor…
