Vacancy formation energy as a descriptor of the exfoliability of MAX phases to MXenes
Abstract A thermodynamic descriptor for chemical exfoliation of MXenes remains elusive, primarily because the process is dynamic and MXenes are inherently metastable. Here we show that vacancy formation energies provide such a descriptor. Synthesized MXenes exhibit positive vacancy formation energie...
