Montmorillonite, a 2:1 clay mineral, is known to accommodate different organic substances within its interlayer space to form intercalation compounds, which have received much attention because of their stability and physicochemical properties. Its use as a drug carrier is widely studied, as the location of the drug molecules within the interlayer space of the clay may modify the suitability of...

The lamellar transition metal Chalocogeno-Phosphates (MzPzS~) form an important family of two-dimensional semiconducting materials. The lamellar structure is formed by stacking S-M2z:~-(P-P),/:3-S units along a unique crystallographic axis. Under appropriate conditions, guest species can enter the space between the layers to form intercalation compounds. Two main mechanisms are presently propos...

Herein, we report on a significant discovery, namely, the quantitative discharging of reduced graphite forms, such as graphite intercalation compounds, graphenide dispersions and graphenides deposited on surfaces with the simple solvent benzonitrile. Because of its comparatively low reduction potential, benzonitrile is reduced during this process to the radical anion, which exhibits a red colou...

We present the first angle-resolved photoemission studies of electronic structure in CaC6, a superconducting graphite intercalation compound with T_{c}=11.6 K. We find that, contrary to theoretical models, the electron-phonon coupling on the graphene-derived Fermi sheets with high-frequency graphene-derived phonons is surprisingly strong and anisotropic. The shape of the Fermi surface is found ...
