Density functional theory-based calculations were used to study the adsorption of H2 molecules on germanene decorated with alkali atoms (AM) and transition metal atoms (TM). The results show that the adsorption energies are in the range of physisorption, with K-decorated germanene having the largest storage capacity.
In this work, we have performed density functional theory-based calculations to study the adsorption of H-2 molecules on germanene decorated with alkali atoms (AM) and transition metal atoms (TM). The cohesive energy indicates that interaction between AM (TM) atoms and germanene is strong. The values of the adsorption energies of H-2 molecules on the AM or TM atoms are in the range physisorption. The K-decorated germanene has the largest storage capacity, being able to bind up to six H-2 molecules, whereas the Au and Na atoms adsorbed five and four H-2 molecules, respectively. Li and Ag atoms can bind a maximum of three H-2 molecules, while Cu-decorated germanene only adsorbed one H-2 molecule. Formation energies show that all the studied cases of H-2 molecules adsorbed on AM and TM atom-decorated germanene are energetically favorable. These results indicate that decorated germanene can serve as a hydrogen storage system. (C) 2020 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
