Ice is Born in Low-Mobility Regions of Supercooled Liquid Water
Martin Fitzner, Gabriele C. Sosso, Stephen J. Cox +1
When an ice crystal is born from liquid water two key changes occur: (i) the molecules order; and (ii) the mobility of the molecules drops as they adopt their lattice positions. Mo…
What Makes a Good Descriptor for Heterogeneous Ice Nucleation on OH-Patterned Surfaces
Philipp Pedevilla, Martin Fitzner, Angelos Michaelides
Freezing of water is arguably one of the most common phase transitions on Earth and almost always happens heterogeneously. Despite its importance, we lack a fundamental understandi…
The Many Faces of Heterogeneous Ice Nucleation: Interplay Between Surface Morphology and Hydrophobicity
Martin Fitzner, Gabriele C Sosso, Stephen J Cox +1
What makes a material a good ice nucleating agent? Despite the importance of heterogeneous ice nucleation to a variety of fields, from cloud science to microbiology, major gaps in…
