Abstract The mechanism of lithium intercalation/deintercalation for phase Al0.8Ni3Sn0.2 as anode material used in lithium ion battery was studied carefully based on the first-principle plane wave pseudo-potential method. The calculated results indicated that Sn–Ni–Al alloy had high theoretical capacity when used as anode material, however, there was high initial irreversible capacity loss because of the large volume expansion. Therefore the technological parameters during preparing the Sn–Ni–Al anode should be controlled strictly to make the content of Al0.8Ni3Sn0.2 phase as low as possible and to make the anode consist of promising Sn–Ni and Al–Ni phases. For comparison, an experiment based on magnetron sputtering was done. The result showed that the calculation is in good agreement with the experiment. We found that the first-principle investigation method is of far-reaching significance in synthesising new commercial anode materials with high capacity and good cycle performance.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
