At model water--vapor and water--solid interfaces, molecular ordering leads to charge oscillations and, thereby, to a spatially varying electrostatic potential. Atomistic simulations indicate that such ordering leads to an electric…
In this work, we estimate the effect of photoinduced screening breakdown of the Coulomb potential mediated by plasmons. In contrast to previous studies, we consider the contribution from the divergence of renormalized inverse electron…
We study the screening of an external potential produced by a two-dimensional gas of charged excitons (trions). We determine the contribution to the dielectric function induced by these composite charged particles within a random phase…
The dielectric constant, which defines the polarization of the media, is a key quantity in condensed matter. It determines several electronic and optoelectronic properties important for a plethora of modern technologies from computer memory…
The dielectric constant of interfacial water has been predicted to be smaller than that of bulk water (= 80) because the rotational freedom of water dipoles is expected to decrease near surfaces, yet experimental evidence is lacking. We…
Polycrystalline solids can exhibit material properties that differ significantly from those of equivalent single-crystal samples, in part, because of a spontaneous redistribution of mobile point defects into so-called space-charge regions…
Long-range interactions and electric response are essential for accurate modeling of condensed-phase systems, but capturing them efficiently remains a challenge for atomistic machine learning. Traditionally, these two phenomena can be…
We study the effect of dielectric inhomogeneities on the interaction between two planparallel charged surfaces with oppositely charged mobile charges in between. The dielectric constant between the surfaces is assumed to be different from…
In this paper, a review on dielectric mixtures and the importance of the numerical simulations of dielectric mixtures are presented. It stresses on the interfacial polarization observed in mixtures. It is shown that this polarization can…
Coulomb drag experiments in which the inter-layer resistivity is measured are important as they provide information on the Coulomb interactions in bilayer systems. When the layer densities are low correlation effects become significant to…
In the framework of the grand-canonical ensemble of statistical mechanics, we give an exact diagrammatic representation of the density profiles in a classical multicomponent plasma near a dielectric wall. By a reorganization of Mayer…
Non-local electrostatic interactions associated with the finite solvent size and ion polarizability are investigated within the mean-field linear response theory. To this end, we introduce a field theoretic model of a polar liquid composed…
We study the asymptotic long-range behavior of the time-dependent correlation function of the surface charge density induced on the interface between two media of distinct dielectric functions which are in thermal equilibrium with one…
The possibility that like-charges can attract each other under the mediation of mobile counterions is by now well documented experimentally, numerically, and analytically. Yet, obtaining exact results is in general impossible, or restricted…
We extend results developed by Chandler [J. Chem. Phys. 65, 2925 (1976)] for the dielectric constant of neutral site-site molecular models to mixtures of both charged and uncharged molecules. This provides a unified derivation connecting…
When a particle contacts a surface of another material, it is commonly believed that the particle acquires an impact charge that scales inversely with its pre-impact charge and whose polarity is set by the materials. We show that this…
The general form of the electrostatic potential around an arbitrarily charged colloid at an interface between a dielectric and a screening phase (such as air and water, respectively) is analyzed in terms of a multipole expansion. The…
Using a simple mean-field density functional theory theory (DFT), we investigate the structure and phase behaviour of a model colloidal fluid composed of particles interacting via a pair potential which has a hard core of diameter $\sigma$,…
We apply a phenomenological theory of polar liquids to calculate the interaction energy between two plane surfaces at nm-distances. We show that depending on the properties of the surface-liquid interfaces, the interacting surfaces induce…
On examining the stability of a Wigner crystal in an ionic dielectric, two competitive effects due to the polaron formation are found to be important: (i) the screening of the Coulomb force, which destabilizes the crystal, compensated by…
