Thesis Title
Molecular simulation study for Li intercalation dynamics
Research overview
Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) layered materials have interlayer vdW gaps, enabling molecule or ions intercalation as a practical method to tailor their physical and chemical properties for many applications. However, there is little knowledge of the spatiotemporal evolution of the dynamic intercalation process owing to the limitations of available experimental techniques. We will use molecular simulations to understand the novel spatiotemporal evolution phenomena during the dynamic process observed in experiments.
