Structural properties and liquid spinodal of water confined in a hydrophobic environment
P. Gallo, M. Rovere
We present the results of a computer simulation study of thermodynamical properties of TIP4P water confined in a hydrophobic disordered matrix of soft spheres upon supercooling. Th…
Electrical spin injection into p-doped quantum dots through a tunnel barrier
L. Lombez, P. Renucci, P. Gallo +14
We have demonstrated by electroluminescence the injection of spin polarized electrons through Co/Al2O3/GaAs tunnel barrier into p-doped InAs/GaAs quantum dots embedded in a PIN GaA…
Molecular dynamics study of the glass transition in confined water
P. Gallo, M. Rovere
A molecular dynamics simulation of SPC/E water confined in a Silica pore is presented. The pore has been constructed to reproduce the average properties of a pore of Vycor glass. D…
Confined water in the low hydration regime
P. Gallo, M. Rapinesi, M. Rovere
Molecular dynamics results on water confined in a silica pore in the low hydration regime are presented. Strong layering effects are found due to the hydrophilic character of the s…
A route to explain water anomalies from results on an aqueous solution of salt
D. Corradini, M. Rovere, P. Gallo
In this paper we investigate the possibility to detect the hypothesized liquid-liquid critical point of water in supercooled aqueous solutions of salts. Molecular dynamics computer…
Non-exponential kinetic behavior of confined water
P. Gallo, M. Rovere, M. A. Ricci +2
We present the results of molecular dynamics simulations of SPC/E water confined in a realistic model of a silica pore. The single-particle dynamics have been studied at ambient te…
