First-principles investigation on multi-magnesium sulfide and magnesium sulfide clusters in magnesium-sulfide batteries
Because of the abundance of magnesium and sulfur and their low cost, the development of magnesium sulfur batteries is very promising. In particular, the battery performance of nanoscale (MgS) n clusters is much better than that of bulk sized MgS. However, the structures, stability, and properties of...

description | Because of the abundance of magnesium and sulfur and their low cost, the development of magnesium sulfur batteries is very promising. In particular, the battery performance of nanoscale (MgS)

n

Compared to the MgS monomer, each sulfur atom in the clusters is coordinated with more magnesium atoms, thus lengthening the Mg-S bond length and decreasing the Mg-S bond activation energy. Notably, with the increase of dielectric constant of electrolyte solvent, compared to the DME (
