“…The lithium storage of 2D TMPs largely depends on the conversion reaction of P. For example, CoP achieves lithium storage by combining P with Li to generate Li 3 P,
[23,51] and its expression is CoP+3Li + +3e −
Li 3 P+Co. The main group MPs stores Li not only by conversion reaction of P but also by alloying with Li to form Li x M. For example, in GeP, Ge and Li are alloyed to generate Li 4.4 Ge and P and Li are combined to generate Li 3 P
[99,100] . The above lithium storage behavior is expressed as : Ge+ 4.4Li
Li 4.4 Ge; Li x GeP+(3− x )Li
Li 3 P+Ge.…”
