In recent years, organic-based, especially carbonyl-based, Li-ion battery electrode materials have attracted great attention due to their low-cost, environmentally friendly nature and strong Li-ion bonding abilities. However, new research is required to further increase the electron mobility and cycling performance of organic materials. The performance of a high-carbonyl C6O6 molecule-functionalized graphene electrode for Li-ion batteries is investigated using the density functional theory. The binding energy calculations indicate that the C6O6 molecule is adsorbed on graphene via physisorption. C6O6@graphene maintains excellent electronic conductivity with 1 to 6 Li ions. By our statistical method, the reduced voltage of the C6O6@graphene cathode displays a voltage between 2.6 V and 1.5 V with 2 phases from 1 to 6 Li ions with energy density of approximately 155 mA h g−1. The results obtained reveal that C6O6@graphene is a promising electrode material for renewable Li-ion batteries.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
