      abstract = {This thesis describes in-depth theoretical efforts to  understand the reaction mechanism of graphite and lithium  metal as anodes for next-generation rechargeable batteries.  The first part deals with Na intercalation chemistry in  graphite, whose understanding is crucial for utilizing  graphite as an anode for Na-ion batteries. The author  demonstrates that Na ion intercalation in graphite is  thermodynamically unstable because of the unfavorable  Na-graphene interaction. To address this issue, the  inclusion of screening moieties, such as solvents, is  suggested and proven to enable reversible Na-solvent  cointercalation in graphite. Furthermore, the author  provides the correlation between the intercalation behavior  and the properties of solvents, suggesting a general  strategy to tailor the electrochemical intercalation  chemistry. The second part addresses the Li dendrite growth  issue, which is preventing practical application of Li  metal anodes. A continuum mechanics study considering  various experimental conditions reveals the origins of  irregular growth of Li metal. The findings provide crucial  clues for developing effective counter strategies to  control the Li metal growth, which will advance the  application of high-energy-density Li metal anodes.},
