Abstract
Based on a combination of the distortive lattice gas model and the maximum information entropy approach, the thermodynamics of insertion into disordered hosts is analyzed. It is found that the isotherm specificities can be explained as a cooperative interplay of the host volume expansion and the internal distortions, which tend to optimize the host structure inducing a local lowering of the insertion energetic cost. Behavior of amorphous LixWO3 films of different thicknesses is discussed in this context.
