Intercalation is the reversible inclusion or insertion of a molecule (or ion) into layered materials with layered structures. Examples are found in graphite and transition metal dichalcogenides. [1][2]

Two perspective review papers are dedicated to intercalation layered compounds (ILCs), especially focusing on their design and applications in the field of energy (part 1) and for catalysis, environment …

Intercalation refers to the reversible intercalation of mobile guest species (atoms, molecules, or ions) into a crystalline host lattice that contains an interconnected system of empty lattice sites of …

An important reaction of layered compounds is intercalation. In intercalation reactions, guest molecules and ions enter the galleries that separate the sheets, usually with expansion of the lattice …

Sep 4, 2022 · The term ‘intercalation’ refers to a process whereby a guest molecule or ion is inserted into a host lattice. The structure of the guest–host or intercalation compound is only …

This database facilitates the comparison of band structures for layered intercalation compounds with the same host but different crystal structures depending on the intercalant.

May 30, 2025 · Intercalation compounds are formed when guest species, such as ions or molecules, are inserted into the interstices of a host material, often a layered or tunnel-structured compound.
