A combined DFT/topological analysis approach for modeling disordered solid electrolytes

In the scope of this study, the Ag2S·CdS·3SnS2 solid electrolyte disordered in the Cd/Sn sublattice is explored by means of the approach involving configurational space (CS) setting and first-principles calculations. Within the density functional theory calculations on the CS, the absolute differenc...
