An international team of researchers (USA – Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Georgia State University, Tulane University, Drexel University, Portugal) integrated theoretical data from computational modeling of experimental data to pinpoint potential locations of a variety of charged ions in titanium carbide, the most studied MXene phase. MXenes are a class of two-dimensional materials constructed in layers that are only a few atoms thick. They were able to form links between theory and different types of materials characterization, ranging from very simple to very complex over a wide range of length and time scales. The study’s results allowed the team to predict the material’s capacitance, or its ability to store energy…read more. TECHNICAL ARTICLE
