The Recurrent Structural Frameworks of Stable Inorganic Materials

Roee Asher, Nadav Moav, Lee A. Burton

The number of possible crystal structures vastly exceeds the number realized among thermodynamically stable inorganic materials, suggesting that experimentally accessible structure…

Best Practices for Modelling Electrides

Lee A. Burton

Materials in which electrons occupy interstitial sites as anions are called electrides and exhibit unusual dimensionality-dependent electronic behavior. These properties make elect…

Hydride Ion Intercalation and Conduction in the Electride SrCrN

Xu Miaoting, Cuicui Wang, Benjamin J. Morgan +1

The electride SrCrN has a one-dimensional channel of electron density, which is a rare feature that offers great potential for fast ion conduction. Using density functional…

Ultralow Work Function of the Electride SrCrN

Cuicui Wang, Miaoting Xu, Keith T. Butler +1

Electrides have valence electrons that occupy free space in the crystal structure, making them easier to extract. This feature can be used in catalysis for important reactions that…

Data-Mining Element Charges in Inorganic Materials

Yu Ding, Yu Kumagai, Fumiyasu Oba +1

Oxidation states are well-established in chemical science teaching and research. We data-mine more than 168,000 crystallographic reports to find an optimal allocation of oxidation…

Sr3CrN3: a new electride with partially filled d-shells

Padtaraporn Chanhom, Kevin E. Fritz, Lee Burton +8

Electrides are ionic crystals in which the electrons prefer to occupy free space, serving as anions. Because the electrons prefer to be in the pockets, channels, or layers to the a…

High-Throughput Identification of Electrides from all Known Inorganic Materials

Lee A. Burton, Francesco Ricci, Gian-Marco Rignanese +1

In this paper, we present the results of a large-scale, high-throughput computational search for electrides among all known inorganic materials. Analyzing a database of density fun…

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…

Anharmonicity in the high-temperature Cmcm phase of SnSe: soft modes and three-phonon interactions

Jonathan M. Skelton, Lee A. Burton, Stephen C. Parker +8

The layered semiconductor SnSe is one of the highest-performing thermoelectric materials known. We demonstrate, through a first-principles lattice-dynamics study, that the high-tem…
