Towards a new packing pattern of Li adsorption in two-dimensional pentagonal BCN

Abstract

. Still, penta-BCN exhibits metallic conductivity during Li adsorption, and has a low open-circuit voltage, and a low ion-diffusion barrier, all being beneficial for anode materials. These observations imply that penta-BCN remains one of the most effective anode materials for LIBs with a quick charge/discharge rate.
