• . There are also some reports on the preparation of LIB anodes using graphene prepared by chemical vapor deposition [33][34]. However, such application will be limited due to cost and scalability. Electrochemical exfoliation is a newly developed method that can be used to prepare highly conductive

• structures methods or performance of the implemented algorithms. This capability is a necessity for the investigation of large systems as the many packages that implement efficient density functional theory (DFT) are still in development and change on a regular basis. Scalability of the vibrational approach

• also easily integrable, as they are based on delta functions. The limiting part of the calculation is the diagonalisation of an Ng × Ng matrix, where Ng is the number of grid points (which must be even in this approach). We use mathematical libraries (Lapack) to ensure the scalability of the approach
