Phase behavior of correlated random copolymers
Elena Patyukova, Erte Xi, Mark R. Wilson
In this work, Flory-Huggins phase diagrams for correlated random copolymers with realistic chain lengths are calculated. This is achieved in two steps. At first we derive a distrib…
Protein Hydration Waters are Susceptible to Unfavorable Perturbations
Nicholas B. Rego, Erte Xi, Amish J. Patel
The interactions of a protein, its phase behavior, and ultimately, its ability to function, are all influenced by the interactions between the protein and its hydration waters. Her…
Sparse Sampling of Water Density Fluctuations near Liquid-Vapor Coexistence
Erte Xi, Sean M. Marks, Suruchi Fialoke +1
The free energetics of water density fluctuations in bulk water, at interfaces, and in hydrophobic confinement inform the hydration of hydrophobic solutes as well as their interact…
Spontaneous Recovery of Superhydrophobicity on Nanotextured Surfaces
Suruchi Prakash, Erte Xi, Amish J. Patel
Rough or textured hydrophobic surfaces are dubbed superhydrophobic due to their numerous desirable properties, such as water repellency and interfacial slip. Superhydrophobicity st…
Sparse Sampling of Water Density Fluctuations in Interfacial Environments
Erte Xi, Richard C. Remsing, Amish J. Patel
The free energetics of water density fluctuations near a surface, and the rare low-density fluctuations in particular, serve as reliable indicators of surface hydrophobicity; the e…
Pathways to dewetting in hydrophobic confinement
Richard C. Remsing, Erte Xi, Srivathsan Vembanur +4
Liquid water can become metastable with respect to its vapor in hydrophobic confinement. The resulting dewetting transitions are often impeded by large kinetic barriers. According…
