We use density functional theory (DFT) with the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and our first-principles extrapolation method for accurate chemisorption energies {[Mason {\em et al.}, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 69}, 161401R (2004)]} to…

Exceptionally high energy density by mass, natural abundance, widespread applications, and environmental friendliness make hydrogen (H2) a front-runner among clean energy options. However, the transition toward clean and renewable energy…

Combining first-principles density functional theory simulations with IR and Raman experiments, we determine the frequency shift of vibrational modes of CO2 when physiadsorbed in the iso-structural metal organic framework materials Mg-MOF74…

Ceria (CeO2) is a promising catalyst for the reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to liquid fuels and commodity chemicals, in part because of its high oxygen storage capacity, yet the fundamentals of CO2 adsorption and initial activation on…

The interactions of atomic and molecular hydrogen with bare interstellar dust grain surfaces are important for understanding H2 formation at relatively high temperatures (>20 K). We investigate the diffusion of physisorbed H atoms and the…

The present study reports the catalytic action of two-dimensional (2D) layered materials (MoS2 and WS2) for improving the de/re-hydrogenation kinetics of MgH2. The MgH2 start desorbing at 277 C with a hydrogen storage capacity of 5.95 wt%…

Adsorption of CO$_2$ on a semiconductor surface is a prerequisite for its photocatalytic reduction. Owing to superior photocorrosion resistance, nontoxicity and suitable band edge positions, TiO$_2$ is considered to be the most efficient…

Two-dimensional materials (2DM) have attracted much interest due to their distinct optical, electronic, and catalytic properties. These properties can be by tuned a range of methods including substitutional doping or, as recently…

CO$_2$ capture using carbon-based materials, particularly graphene and graphene-like materials, is a promising strategy to deal with CO$_2$ emissions. However, significant gaps remain in our understanding of the molecular-level interaction…
