Atomistic characterization of the SiO2 high-density liquid/low-density liquid interface
Xin Zhang, Brian B. Laird, Hongtao Liang +5
The equilibrium silica liquid-liquid interface between the high-density liquid (HDL) phase and the low-density liquid (LDL) phase is examined using molecular-dynamics simulation. T…
Local collective dynamics at equilibrium BCC crystal-melt interfaces
Xin Zhang, Wenliang Lu, Zun Liang +5
We present a classical molecular-dynamics study of the collective dynamical properties of the coexisting liquid phase at equilibrium body-centered cubic (BCC) Fe crystal-melt inter…
Kinetics of Crystallization and Orientational Ordering in Dipolar Particle Systems
Xian-Qi Xu, Brian B. Laird, Jeffrey J. Hoyt +2
The kinetic mechanisms underlying bottom-up assembly of colloidal particles have been widely investigated in efforts to control crystallization pathways and to direct growth into t…
Grain Boundary Premelting of Monolayer Ices in 2D Nano-channels
Zun Liang, Han Du, Hongtao Liang +1
We employ molecular-dynamics (MD) simulations to study grain boundary (GB) premelting in ices confined in two-dimensional hydrophobic nano-channels. Premelting transition is observ…
Evaluation of Constant Potential Method in Simulating Electric Double-Layer Capacitors
Zhenxing Wang, Yang Yang, David L. Olmsted +2
A major challenge in the molecular simulation of electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) is the choice of an appropriate model for the electrode. Typically, in such simulations th…
Solid-liquid interfacial premelting
Yang Yang, Mark Asta, Brian B. Laird
We report the observation of a premelting transition at chemically sharp solid-liquid interfaces using molecular-dynamics simulations. The transition is observed in the solid-Al/li…
