The structure of an adsorption octadecanamide film at the planar toluene-water interface is studied by X-ray reflectometry using synchrotron radiation with photon energy of 15 keV. The electron density (polarizability) profiles, according…

The air-water interface plays a crucial role in many aspects of science, because of its unique properties, such as a two-dimensional hydrogen bond (HB) network and completely different HB dynamics compared to bulk water. However, accurately…

The structure of the soluble protonated (pH=2) octadecanoic acid film adsorbed on the saturated hydrocarbon (n-hexane) - water and aromatic hydrocarbon (toluene)-water interfaces is studied by X-ray reflectometry using synchrotron…

The density profiles of liquid/vapor interfaces of water-alcohol (methanol, ethanol and propanol) mixtures were studied by surface sensitive synchrotron X-ray scattering techniques. X-ray reflectivity and diffuse scattering measurements,…

Mesoscale water-hydrophobic interfaces are of fundamental importance in multiple disciplines, but their molecular properties have remained elusive for decades due to experimental complications and alternate theoretical explanations.…

We examine the applicability of various model profiles for the liquid/vapor interface by X-ray reflectivities on water and ethanol and their mixtures at room temperature. Analysis of the X-ray reflecivities using various density profiles…

The air-water interface is a highly prevalent phase boundary with a far-reaching impact on natural and industrial processes. Water molecules behave differently at the interface compared to the bulk, exhibiting anisotropic orientational…

We compute ionic free energy adsorption profiles at aqueous graphene interface by developing a self-consistent approach. To do so, we design a microscopic model for water and put the liquid on an equal footing with the graphene described by…

Because of the dominant role of the surface of molecules and their individuality, molecules behave dis-tinctively in a confined space, which has far-reaching implications in many physical, chemical and bio-logical systems. Here, we…

Water plays a crucial role in geological, biological, and technological processes. Nanoscale water confinement occurs in many of these settings, including sedimentary rocks, water channel proteins, and applications like desalination and…

In this paper we try to work out in detail the implications of a microscopic theory for capillary waves under the assumption that the density is given along lines normal to the interface. Our study provides interface Hamiltonians for…

In this study, capillary-driven flow of different pure liquids and diluted bitumen samples were studied using microfluidic channel (width of 30 um and depth of 9 um). Capillary filling kinetics of liquids as a function of time were…

We explore by means of modeling how absorptive-dispersive mixing between the second- and third-order terms modify the imaginary chi(2)total responses from air/water interfaces under conditions of varying charge densities and ionic strength.…

The behavior at the air/water interface of multilamellar tubes made of the ethanolamine salt of the 12-hydroxy stearic acid as a function of the temperature has been investigated using Neutron Reflectivity. Those tubes are known to exhibit…

Accurate modeling of diffusive transport of nanoparticles across nanopores is a particularly challenging problem. The reason is that for such narrow pores the large surface-to-volume ratio amplifies the relevance of the nanoscopic details…

This report documents microstructural features of CH3(CH2-O-CH2)mCH3 dissolved in water and n-hexane for m = 11, 21, and 31. Probability densities for end-to-end distance, and the associated potential-of-mean-force (pmf), are more revealing…

The spatial structure of the transition region between an insulator and an electrolyte solution was studied with x-ray scattering.The electron density profile across the n-hexane/silica sol interface (solutions with 5-nm, 7-nm, and 12-nm…

Evidence for capillary waves at a liquid/vapor interface are presented from extensive molecular dynamics simulations of a system containing up to 1.24 million Lennard-Jones particles. Careful measurements show that the total interfacial…

There is a long-standing question about the molecular configuration of interfacial water molecules in the proximity of solid surfaces, particularly carbon atoms which play a crucial role in electrochemistry and biology. In this study, the…

The results of x-ray reflectivity studies of two oil/water (liquid/liquid) interfaces are inconsistent with recent predictions of the presence of a vapor-like depletion region at hydrophobic/aqueous interfaces. One of the oils,…
