Prussian blue (PB) and its analogues (PBAs) are potential cathode-active materials for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Although a body of research has assessed the performances of various PB/PBA cathodes with an eye to practical use, the underlying Li-transport mechanism is still unclear. Focusing on copper hexacyanoferrate (CuHCF), a PBA that exhibits static Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion, we theoretically investigate how the framework's distortion affects the pathways and energetics of the Li transport.
