Horizontal lithium growth driven by surface dynamics on single crystal Cu(111) foil Open
Single-crystal Cu(111) foil promotes the lateral growth of lithium rhombic dodecahedra, preventing dendritic lithium growth during plating. This is achieved through surface migration and the interaction of lithium adatoms with individual g…

Charge Transfer during the Dissociation of H<sub>2</sub> and the Charge State of H Atoms in Liquid Gallium Open
Ab initio calculations have been performed on the liquid gallium−hydrogen system at 100 °C. Gallium was found to interact with both free hydrogen atoms and H2, transferring charge in the process. First-principles computer modeling showed t…
