How Does Intercalation Reshape Layered Structures? A First-Principles Study of Sodium Insertion in Layered Potassium Birnessite

Adriana Lee Punaro, Daniel Maldonado-Lopez, Jorge L. Cholula-Díaz +2

This study presents a first-principles study at the level of hybrid-level density functional theory of the sodium intercalation process in a layered potassium birnessite (a layered…

A first-principles theoretical study on two-dimensional MX and MX metal halides: bandgap engineering, magnetism, and catalytic descriptors

Yu-Hsiu Lin, Daniel Maldonado-Lopez, Jose L. Mendoza-Cortes

Metal halides, particularly MX and MX compounds (where M represents metal elements and X = F, Cl, Br, I), have attracted significant interest due to their diverse electronic an…

Enhanced activity in layered-metal-oxide-based oxygen evolution catalysts by layer-by-layer modulation of metal ion identity

Ran Ding, Daniel Maldonado-Lopez, Jacob E. Henebry +2

Few-layered potassium nickel and cobalt oxides show drastic differences in catalytic activity based on metal ion preorganization. Uniform compositions $[(\mathrm{CoO}_2/\mathrm{K})…

Terahertz control of surface topology probed with subatomic resolution

Vedran Jelic, Stefanie Adams, Daniel Maldonado-Lopez +4

Light-induced phase transitions offer a method to dynamically modulate topological states in bulk complex materials. Yet, next-generation devices demand nanoscale architectures wit…
