Structural and electronic properties of β-MnO2 nanoclusters

Pyrolusite (β-MnO2) was investigated for potential use in energy storage devices due to its promising properties for cathode materials in rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. A combination of evolutionary algorithm search techniques and density functional theory techniques were used to determine the...
