TPDH-Graphene as a New Anodic Material for Lithium Ion Battery: DFT-Based Investigations

The potential of tetra-penta-deca-hexagonal graphene (TPDH-gr), a recently proposed 2D carbon allotrope as an anodic material in lithium ion batteries (LIBs), was investigated through density functional theory calculations. The results indicate that Li-atom adsorption is moderate (around 0.70 eV), allowing for easy desorption. Moreover, energy barriers (0.08-0.20 eV), diffusion coefficient (>6 × 10
