Interfacial Strain Effects on Lithium Diffusion Pathways in the Spinel Solid Electrolyte Li-Doped MgAlO

Conn O'Rourke, Benjamin J. Morgan

(Li,Al)-co-doped magnesium spinel (LiMgAlO) is a solid lithium-ion electrolyte with potential use in all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries. Interfaces with…

Self-consistent hybrid functional calculations: Implications for structural, electronic, and optical properties of oxide semiconductors

Daniel Fritsch, Benjamin J. Morgan, Aron Walsh

The development of new exchange-correlation functionals within density functional theory means that increasingly accurate information is accessible at moderate computational cost.…

Role of point defects in spinel Mg chalcogenide conductors

Pieremanuele Canepa, Gopalakrishnan Sai Gautam, Danny Broberg +2

Close-packed chalcogenide spinels, such as MgScSe, MgInS and MgScS, show potential as solid electrolytes in Mg batteries, but are affected by non-negligible…

Spontaneous Octahedral Tilting in the Cubic Inorganic Caesium Halide Perovskites CsSnX and CsPbX (X = F, Cl, Br, I)

Ruo Xi Yang, Jonathan M. Skelton, E. Lora da Silva +2

The local crystal structures of many perovskite-structured materials deviate from the average space group symmetry. We demonstrate, from lattice-dynamics calculations based on quan…

Slow cooling of hot polarons in halide perovskite solar cells

Jarvist Moore Frost, Lucy D. Whalley, Aron Walsh

Halide perovskites show unusual thermalisation kinetics for above bandgap photo-excitation. We explain this as a consequence of excess energy being deposited into discrete large po…

The role of spin-orbit coupling in the electronic structure of IrO

Pranab Kumar Das, Jagoda Sławińska, Ivana Vobornik +15

The delicate interplay of electronic charge, spin, and orbital degrees of freedom is in the heart of many novel phenomena across the transition metal oxide family. Here, by combini…

Electronic bandstructure of ReS2 by high resolution angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy

James L. Webb, Lewis S. Hart, Daniel Wolverson +3

The rhenium-based transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are atypical of the TMD family due to their highly anisotropic crystalline structure and are recognized as promising mater…

Calculating polaron mobility in halide perovskites

Jarvist Moore Frost

Lead halide perovskite semiconductors are soft, polar, materials. The strong driving force for polaron formation (the dielectric electron-phonon coupling) is balanced by the light…

Chemical and Lattice Stability of the Tin Sulfides

Jonathan M. Skelton, Lee A. Burton, Fumiyasu Oba +1

The tin sulfides represent a materials platform for earth-abundant semiconductor technologies. We present a first-principles study of the five known and proposed phases of SnS toge…

Perspective: Theory and simulation of hybrid halide perovskites

Lucy D. Whalley, Jarvist M. Frost, Young-Kwang Jung +1

Organic-inorganic halide perovskites present a number of challenges for first-principles atomistic materials modelling. These `plastic crystals' feature dynamic processes across mu…
