Hydrogen plays a significant role in the microstructure evolution and macroscopic deformation of materials, causing swelling and surface blistering to reduce service life. In the present work, the atomistic mechanisms of hydrogen bubble nucleation in vanadium were studied by first-principles calculations. The interstitial hydrogen atoms cannot form significant bound states with other hydrogen atoms in bulk vanadium, which explains the absence of hydrogen self-clustering from the experiments. To find the possible origin of hydrogen bubble in vanadium, we explored the minimum sizes of a vacancy cluster in vanadium for the formation of hydrogen molecule. We show that a freestanding hydrogen molecule can form and remain relatively stable in the center of a 54-hydrogen atom saturated 27-vacancy cluster.

Abstract The Mg-Ga alloy-type electrode is one of the potential anode materials for Magnesium-ion batteries (MIBs). In this work, the thermodynamic, electrochemical and kinetic properties of Mg-Ga compounds, i.e. Mg2Ga5, MgGa2, MgGa, Mg2Ga and Mg5Ga2, have been systematically studied. Combining the first-principles calculations and charge-discharge experimental results, the structure evolution and voltage curves of Mg-Ga compounds are presented, where the Mg-Ga compounds show low voltages and high capacity up to 1922 mAh·g-1 with Mg5Ga2. Additionally, the diffusion barriers of Mg in Mg-Ga alloys are low, which is favorable for the fast ion-transmission and then good rate performance as anodes of MIBs.
