Toward the Development of a High-Voltage Mg Cathode Using a Chromium Sulfide Host
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Development of Mg-ion batteries as advanced electrochemical energy storage systems relies on the design and discovery of high-voltage positive electrode (cathode) materials. To date, a variety of sulfide cathodes have been reported (e.g., Mg x Mo 6 S 8, Mg x Ti 2 S 4, etc.), but the voltages of these materials are too low to prepare a high energy density Mg cell. Theoretical computations predicted that Mg x Cr 2 S 4 operating with the high-voltage Cr 3+/4+ redox couple would serve as a suitable cathode candidate, but experimental attempts to extract Mg 2+ from the lattice have been largely unsuccessful. We show that reversible electrochemical activity within a thiospinel framework ( AB 2 S 4 ) relies on a redox-active transition metal present in the B site; otherwise, anionic redox activity triggers decomposition of the spinel structure. Since Cr and S states are highly coupled in MgCr 2 S 4, the Cr 3+/4+ redox couple is inaccessible so that reversible (de)intercalation of Mg 2+ cannot occur and charging leads to dissolution of the active material. These findings point to an insufficiency in the screening criteria previously used to identify MgCr 2 S 4 as a promising Mg cathode. Thus, a computable descriptor based on the electronic structure of the discharged material is proposed to predict the prevalence of cation vs anion redox and improve future surveys of potential candidates. It is unlikely that the high-voltage Cr redox couple will be accessible to oxidation in the presence of sulfur within the restrictions of a spinel framework; however, it is possible that a suitable layered Mg x CrS 2 structure could serve as a reversible high-voltage Mg cathode.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
