Electrides are materials in which electrons serve as anions. Here, the concept of inorganic
electrides is extended in several respects: from ionic crystals to intermetallic compounds in …

Since graphene became available by a scotch tape technique, a vast class of two-
dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) layered materials has been researched intensively …

We report an air and water stable electride Y5Si3 and its catalytic activity for direct ammonia
synthesis. It crystallizes in the Mn5Si3-type structure and confines 0.79/fu anionic electrons …

The electron-rich characteristic and low work function endow electrides with excellent
performance in (opto) electronics and catalytic applications; these two features are closely …

Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been serving as one the most critical
components of fast growing technologies, such as the mobile electronic and electrified …

This study combines machine learning (ML) and high-throughput calculations to uncover
new ternary electrides in the A 2 BC 2 family of compounds with the P 4/mbm space group …

In a two-dimensional (2D) Kagome lattice, the ideal Kagome bands including Dirac cones,
van Hove singularities, and a flat band are highly expected, because they can provide a …

Electrides are systems in which an electron is not bound to an atom and plays an active role
in the materials structure. We present concise summaries of the different types of electride in …

Electrides are exotic materials that typically have electrons present in well-defined lattice
sites rather than within atoms. Although all known electrides have an electropositive metal …

Electrides are intrinsic electron-rich materials enabling applications as excellent electron
emitters, superior catalysts, and strong reducing agents. There are a number of organic …
