Melting of hexane monolayers adsorbed on graphite: the role of domains and defect formation
C. Wexler, L. Firlej, B. Kuchta +1
We present the first large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of hexane on graphite that completely reproduces all experimental features of the melting transition. The canonical…

Cross-over mechanism of the melting transition in monolayers of alkanes adsorbed on graphite and the universality of energy scaling
L. Firlej, B. Kuchta, M. W. Roth +1
The interplay between the torsional potential energy and the scaling of the 1-4 van der Waals and Coulomb interactions determines the stiffness of flexible molecules. In molecular…
