A theoretical study on the intercalation and diffusion of AlF 3 in graphite: its application in rechargeable batteries

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT), we study the aluminum fluoride (AlF 3 ) intercalation in graphite as a new possibility to use this molecule in rechargeable batteries, and understand its role when used as a component of the solvent.
