Breaking the Air-Water Paradigm: Ion Behavior at Hydrophobic Solid-Water Interfaces
Xavier R. Advincula, Kara D. Fong, Yongkang Wang +4
Hydrophobic solid-water interfaces underpin processes in nanofluidics, electrochemistry, and energy technologies. Microscopic insights into these systems are often inferred from ou…
A foundation model for atomistic materials chemistry
Ilyes Batatia, Philipp Benner, Yuan Chiang +85
Atomistic simulations of matter, especially those that leverage first-principles (ab initio) electronic structure theory, provide a microscopic view of the world, underpinning much…
Towards Routine Condensed Phase Simulations with Delta-Learned Coupled Cluster Accuracy: Application to Liquid Water
Niamh O'Neill, Benjamin X. Shi, William Baldwin +5
Simulating liquid water to an accuracy that matches its wealth of available experimental data requires both precise electronic structure methods and reliable sampling of nuclear (q…
How reactive is water at the nanoscale and how to control it?
Xavier R. Advincula, Yair Litman, Kara D. Fong +3
Nanoconfined water plays a key role in nanofluidics, electrochemistry, and catalysis, yet its reactivity remains a matter of debate. Prior studies have reported both enhanced and s…
CO2 Hydration at the Air-Water Interface: A Surface-Mediated 'In and Out' Mechanism
Samuel G. H. Brookes, Venkat Kapil, Angelos Michaelides +1
An understanding of the CO + HO hydration reaction is crucial for modeling the effects of ocean acidification, for enabling novel carbon storage solutions, and as a model p…
Entropy governs the structure and reactivity of water dissociation under electric fields
Yair Litman, Angelos Michaelides
The response of water to electric fields is critical to the performance and stability of electrochemical devices, and the selectivity of enzymatic, atmospheric, and organic reactio…
