Finite electric displacement simulations of polar ionic solid-electrolyte interfaces: Application to NaCl(111)/aqueous NaCl solution

Thomas Sayer, Michiel Sprik, Chao Zhang

Tasker type III polar terminations of ionic crystals carry a net surface charge as well as a dipole moment and are fundamentally unstable. In contact with electrolytes, such polar…

Computing the Helmholtz Capacitance of Charged Insulator-Electrolyte Interfaces from the Supercell Polarization

Chao Zhang

Supercell modelling of an electrical double layer (EDL) at electrified solid-electrolyte interfaces is a challenge. The net polarization of EDLs arising from the fixed chemical com…

Note: On the dielectric constant of nanoconfined water

Chao Zhang

Investigations of dielectric properties of water in nanoconfinement are highly relevant for various applications. Here, using a simple capacitor model, we show that the low dielect…
