In recent years, the development of high-capacity energy storage devices has been strongly demanded, and alkali metal intercalation into graphene layers is regarded as a promising approach. In this study, bilayer graphene models intercalated with alkali metals (Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs) were constructed using density functional theory (DFT), and carbon K-edge X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) were calculated. Furthermore, dimensionality reduction was applied to analyze the XAS data, enabling visualization of concentration-dependent changes in the electronic structure. Clear separation was observed in the low-concentration region, whereas spectral differences were reduced at high concentrations due to the saturation of charge transfer.
