Electrofreezing of Liquid Water at Ambient Conditions
Giuseppe Cassone, Fausto Martelli
Water is routinely exposed to external electric fields (EFs). Whether, e.g., at physiological conditions, in contact with biological systems, or at the interface of polar surfaces…
Unravelling the contribution of local structures to the anomalies of water: the synergistic action of several factors
Fausto Martelli
We investigate the microscopic origin of water's anomalies by inspecting the hydrogen bond network (HBN) and the spatial organization of low-density-liquid (LDL) like and high-dens…
Searching for crystal-ice domains in amorphous ices
Fausto Martelli, Nicolas Giovambattista, Salvatore Torquato +1
We employ classical molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the molecular-level structure of water during the isothermal compression of hexagonal ice (I) and low-density a…
Root-Growth of Boron Nitride Nanotubes: Experiments and \textit{Ab Initio} Simulations
Biswajit Santra, Hsin-Yu Ko, Yao-Wen Yeh +4
We have synthesized boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) in an arc in presence of boron and nitrogen species only, without transition metals. We find that BNNTs are often attached to pu…
