Disulfide-Bridged (Mo3S11) Cluster Polymer: Molecular Dynamics and Application as Electrode Material for a Rechargeable Magnesium Battery

Exploring novel electrode materials is critical for the development of a next-generation rechargeable magnesium battery with high volumetric : capacity. Here, we showed that a distinct amorphous molybdenum sulfide, :being a coordination polymer of disulfide-bridged (Mo3S11) clusters, has great,potential as a rechargeable magnesium battery cathode.. This material provided good reversible capacity, attributed to its unique structure with high flexibility and capability of deformation upon Mg insertion. Free terminal disulfide moiety May: act as the:active site for reversible insertion and, extraction of magnesium.
