Wettability from Diffusion: A Universal Molecular Scaling Law
Lorenzo Agosta
Quantifying wettability at the nanoscale remains challenging, as macroscopic contact-angle measurements fail to capture the molecular interactions that define hydrophilic and hydro…
Spectral Similarity Masks Structural Diversity at Hydrophobic Water Interfaces
Yong Wang, Yifan Li, Linhan Du +5
The air-water and graphene-water interfaces represent quintessential examples of the liquid-gas and liquid-solid boundaries, respectively. While the sum-frequency generation (SFG)…
Water under hydrophobic confinement: entropy and diffusion
Lorenzo Agosta, Kersti Hermansson, Mikhail Dzugutov
The properties of liquid water are known to change drastically in confined geometries. A most interesting and intriguing phenomenon is that the diffusion of water is found to be st…
The entropic origin of the enhancement of liquid diffusion at the confining wall
Lorenzo Agosta, Mikhail Dzugutov, Wim Briels +1
We report a molecular dynamics simulation investigating the dynamics of a simple liquid in the proximity to a non-interacting smooth confining wall. A strong enhancement of the liq…
Self-assembly of orthorhombic Fddd network in simple one-component liquids
Lorenzo Agosta, Alfredo Metere, Peter Oleynikov +1
Triply periodic continuous morphologies arising a result of the microphase separation in block copolymer melts have so far never been observed self-assembled in systems of particle…
A hexatic smectic phase with algebraically decaying bond-orientational order
Lorenzo Agosta, Alfredo Metere, Mikhail Dzugutov
The hexatic phase predicted by the theories of two-dimensional melting is characterised by the power law decay of the orientational correlations whereas the in-layer bond orientati…
