Critical angle for interfacial phonon scattering: Results from ab initio lattice dynamics calculations
Ali Alkurdi, Stéphane Pailhès, Samy Merabia
Thermal boundary resistance is a critical quantity that controls heat transfer at the nanoscale, which is primarily related to interfacial phonon scattering. Here, we combine latti…
What controls thermo-osmosis? Molecular simulations show the critical role of interfacial hydrodynamics
Li Fu, Samy Merabia, Laurent Joly
Thermo-osmotic and related thermo-phoretic phenomena can be found in many situations from biology to colloid science, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unexplo…
Gibbs adsorption impact on a nanodroplet shape: modification of Young-Laplace equation
Mykola Isaiev, Sergii Burian, Leonid Bulavin +6
An efficient technique for the evaluation of the Gibbs adsorption of a liquid on a solid substrate is presented. The behavior of a water nanodroplet on a silicon surface is simulat…
Assessment of elastic models in supercooled water: A molecular dynamics study with the TIP4P/2005f force field
Emmanuel Guillaud, Laurent Joly, Dominique De Ligny +1
Glass formers exhibit a viscoelastic behavior: at the laboratory timescale, they behave like (glassy) solids at low temperatures, and like liquids at high temperatures. Based on th…
