Figure 1 Figure 1: Local repulsive carbon–cation interactions. a) Schematic of the CB11H12 − anion, showing the definitions of the angle θ relative to the C5 axis through the C atom, as well as key binding sites Ωi that describe the nearby cation distribution. b) The average distributions of Li+ (top panel)more » and Na+ (bottom panel) surrounding the CB11H12 − anions for 50 ps of AIMD at 800 K, shown as a function of θ and cation–anion radial cutoff distance r as depicted in (a). Three radial cutoffs are considered for each system. The short-range interactions are dominated by Coulombic repulsion between the cations and the C–H termination of the CB11H12 − anion and directly reflect the symmetry of the anion. Angles corresponding to sites Ωi are shown. c) The potential energy landscape associated with Li+ (top panel) and Na+ (bottom panel) as a function of distance from the anion, plotted along the angular path between the sites Ωi indicated by the black dashed line in (a). Energies are referenced to the global minimum r at Ω4.« less
