Abstract
Selecting an appropriate anode material (AM) has been considered to be a crucial initial step in advancing high-performance batteries. Within this piece of research, we examine the suitability of the BC6NA monolayer (referred to as BC6NAML) as an AM by first-principles calculations. The BC6NAML exhibits metallic behavior consistently, even with varying concentrations of Na atoms, making it an ideal choice for battery usages. Our findings revealed that the theoretical storage capacity for Na-adhered BC6NAML was 406.36 mAhg-1, surpassing graphite, TiO2, BC6NA, and numerous other 2D materials. The BC6NAML also demonstrates a diffusion barrier of 0.39 eV and favorable diffusivity of Na-ions. Although the open-circuit voltage (OCV) of BC6NAML was temperate and lower compared to the OCV of other AMs like TiO2, our results suggested that it is possible to utilize BC6NAML as one of the encouraging host materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Consequently, this investigation into the potential anodic application of BC6NAML proves valuable for future experimental studies into sodium storage for SIBs.

Abstract
CONTEXT In the present work, we investigated the adsorption mechanism of natural sodium (Na), potassium (K), and lithium (Li) atoms and their respective ion on two nanostructures: boron-nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) and beryllium-oxide nanotubes (BeONTs). The main goal of this research is to calculate the gain voltage for Na, K, and Li ionic batteries. Density function theory (DFT) calculations indicated that the adsorption energy between Na + is higher than that of the other cations, and this is particularly clear in the BeONT. Furthermore, gain voltage calculations showed that BNNTs generate a higher potential than BeONTs, with the most significant difference observed in BNNT/Na + . This research provides theoretical insights into the potential uses of these nanostructures as anodes in Na, K, and Li-ion batteries. METHOD Density function theory used to compute the ground state properties for BeONT and BNNT with and without selected atoms and their ions (Li, K, and Na). B3LYP used for exchange correlation between electrons and ions, and 6-31G* basis set used for all atoms and ions. Gauss Sum 2.2 software used for estimate the density of state (DOS) for all structure under investigation.

Abstract
The structure and energetics of the interactive behavior of Li+ and Li with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been studied at the wB97XD/6-311G(d,p) level of DFT. The electron distribution in the PAHs, analyzed using the topology of the molecular electrostatic potential (MESP), led to the categorization of their aromatic rings into five types, viz Rs, Rn, Rd, Rb, and Re. Among the different rings, sextet-type Rs and naphthalene-type Rn rings showed the highest interaction with Li+. The change in MESP at the nucleus of Li+ (ΔVLi+) due to the formation of the complex Li+...PAH is found to be proportional to the adsorption energy (E1). In Li...PAH, the spin density on Li is close to zero, suggesting the formation of Li+...PAH•- due to the electron transfer from Li to PAH. The adsorption energy (E2) for Li...PAH does not correlate with the change in MESP at the nucleus of Li, whereas the dissociation energy (E3) of Li+...PAH•- to yield Li+ and PAH•- correlates well with the MESP data, ΔVLi. The study confirms that the change in MESP at the nucleus of Li+ due to complex formation gives a quantitative measure of the electronic effect of the cation-π binding. The cell potential (Vcell) is predicted for the lithium ion battery (LIB) using the Li+...PAH and Li...PAH adsorption energies. On the basis of the Vcell data, "carbon nanoflake"-type systems, viz coronene, circumbiphenyl, C42H16, and C50H18 are suggested as good anode materials for LIBs.

Abstract
Cathinone (CTN), classified as stimulants, is one of the psychoactive drugs. Although the sale of CTN was controlled by international drug laws, it was still sold on the internet, and its overdose caused many deaths worldwide. As chemical sensors, two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have drawn attention to be used in various biological molecules. In the current study, the sensing characteristics of the intrinsic SiC monolayer (SiCM) and its Pt-decorated state (Pt@SiCM) were scrutinized toward the CTN drug by utilizing density functional theory (DFT) calculations. It was illustrated that the SiCM sensing response to CTN is insignificant (~ 10.6 at 298 K) due to the weak interaction with the adsorption energy of -0.25 eV. After the decoration of Pt on the SiCM, it was adsorbed above a hexagonal ring, which formed an η6-Pt half-sandwich and the adsorption energy was -3.62 eV. It was found that the Pt@SiCM strongly adsorbed CTN and the adsorption energy was -1.60 eV. Therefore, Pt-decoration augmented the SiCM sensing response to CTN from 10.3 to 716.6. The recovery time obtained for the CTN desorption from the Pt@SiCM surface was 12.7 s, which was short. It was concluded that Pt-decoration makes the SiCM a favorable candidate for CTN identification.

Abstract
Although Li-ion batteries are extensively applied, short lifetime, high cost, and safety problems limit their application. Na-ion batteries (NIB) might be an alternative to the Li-ion owing to wide availability, low cost, and nontoxicity of Na. Here, we performed density functional theory calculations to investigate the possible application of a graphyne-like BN layer (BN-yne) in the anode of NIBs. The adsorption energies of Na and Na+ on the BN-yne are predicted to be -15.3 and -54.6 kcal/mol, respectively. It was found that the maximum barrier energy for migration of Na atom and Na+ ion through BN-yne surface is about 20.2 and 16.5 kcal/mol, respectively. The calculated cell voltage for the BN-yne are predicted to be and 1.70 V. Using an electric field of -0.02 a. u. much more strengthens the interaction of Na+ with the BN-yne compared to the Na atom, increasing the cell voltage of NIB to 2.10 eV. We showed that a high Na storage capacity (Na4B2N2), high cell voltage and diffusion ability of BN-yne make it a promising candidate for the NIB anode material.

Abstract
In this article, we studied the interactions between Mg atom and Mg2+ ion and four nanostructures, including a nanocone, nanotube (4,0), nanosheet, and C60 nanocage, to obtain the cell voltages (V) for Mg-ion batteries (MIBs). Total energy, geometry optimization, frontier molecular orbital (FMO) and density of states (DOS) analyses have been performed using the ωB97XD level of theory and the 6-31G(d) basis set. The DFT calculations clarified that the changes in energy adsorption between Mg2+ ion and the nanostructures, Ead, are in the order tube > cone > sheet > cage. However, Vcell for the nanocone is the highest. The changes in Vcell of the MIBs are in the order cone > tube > sheet > cage. This study theoretically considers the possibilities of Mg as an anode in batteries due to its high Vcell values. In this article, we studied the interactions between Mg atom and Mg2+ ion and four nanostructures, including a nanocone, nanotube (4,0), nanosheet, and C60 nanocage, to obtain the cell voltages (V) for Mg-ion batteries (MIBs).![]()
