Nanodroplets on rough hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces
C. Yang, U. Tartaglino, B. N. J. Persson
We present results of Molecular Dynamics (MD) calculations on the behavior of liquid nanodroplets on rough hydrophobic and hydrophilic solid surfaces. On hydrophobic surfaces, the…
Alkali Halide Surfaces Near Melting: Wetting and Nanofriction Properties
D. Ceresoli, T. Zykova-Timan, U. Tartaglino +1
Alkali halide (100) crystal surfaces are poorly wetted by their own melt at the triple point. We carried out simulations for NaCl(100) within the well tested BMHFT model potential.…
Gold Clusters Sliding on Graphite: a Possible Quartz Crystal Microbalance Experiment?
Stoyan Pisov, Erio Tosatti, Ugo Tartaglino +1
A large measured 2D diffusion coefficient of gold nanoclusters on graphite has been known experimentally and theoretically for about a decade. When subjected to a lateral force, th…
