The accurate description of iron oxides/water interfaces requires reliable force field parameters that can be developed through the comparison with sophisticated quantum mechanical calculations. Here a set of CLASS2 force field parameters…
We present an ab initio investigation of the interaction between methane, its dehydrogenated forms and the cerium oxide surface. In particular, the stoichiometric CeO2(111) surface and the one with oxygen vacancies are considered. We study…
The effect of vacancy and water adsorption on the electronic structure of semiconducting 2D trichalcogenide material CrPX$_3$ (X: S, Se) is studied using state-of-the-art density functional theory (DFT) approach. It is found that chalcogen…
Hydrophobic solid-water interfaces underpin processes in nanofluidics, electrochemistry, and energy technologies. Microscopic insights into these systems are often inferred from our understanding of the air-water interface, which is assumed…
The water/electrode interface under an applied bias potential is a challenging out-of-equilibrium phenomenon, which is difficult to accurately model at the atomic scale. In this study, we employ a combined approach of Density Functional…
We propose a new simple computational model to estimate adsorption energies of atoms and molecules to low-temperature amorphous water ice, and we present the adsorption energies of carbon (3P), nitrogen (4S), and oxygen (3P) atoms based on…
To help provide insight into the remarkable catalytic behavior of the oxygen/silver system for heterogeneous oxidation reactions, purely sub-surface oxygen, and structures involving both on-surface and sub-surface oxygen, as well as…
Dynamics of adsorption and desorption of (4S)-N on amorphous solid water are analyzed using molecular dynamics simulations. The underlying potential energy surface was provided by machine-learned interatomic potentials. Binding energies…
Analysing two-dimensional shallow water equations with idealised bottom topographies have many applications in the atmospheric and oceanic sciences; however, restrictive flow pattern assumptions have been made to achieve explicit solutions.…
The interaction of water with $\alpha$-alumina (i.e. $\alpha$-Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ surfaces is important in a variety of applications and a useful model for the interaction of water with environmentally abundant aluminosilicate phases. Despite…
The interface between liquid water and the Pt(111) metal surface is characterized structurally and thermodynamically via reactive molecular dynamics (MD) simulations within the ReaxFF framework. The formation of a distinct buckled adsorbate…
Scanning probe microscopy (SPM) has been extensively applied to probe interfacial water in many interdisciplinary fields but the disturbance of the probes on the hydrogen-bonding structure of water has remained an intractable problem. Here…
This work builds upon previous studies of nonlinear dynamics in low-pressure capacitively coupled radio-frequency discharges, focusing on the electron power absorption mechanism in discharges with various geometric asymmetries. We present a…
Heating a long-range ordered adsorbate phase beyond its stability temperature does not necessarily result in a disordered phase, it can also break up into heavily fluctuating ordered domains. Temporal and/or spatial averaging over these…
Water and silicon are chemically dissimilar substances with common physical properties. Their liquids display a temperature of maximum density, increased diffusivity on compression, they form tetrahedral crystals and tetrahedral amorphous…
Diamondoids are promising materials for applications in catalysis and nanotechnology. Since many of their applications are in aqueous environments, to understand their function it is essential to know the structure and dynamics of the water…
Understanding the atomic-scale interaction mechanism of CO$_2$ and H$_2$O on TiO$_2$ surface is crucial to establish a correlation between the catalytic efficiency with its exposed facet. Here, with the aid of a three-state model, nudged…
The adsorption of CO molecules at the Ca3Ru2O7(001) surface was studied using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and density functional theory (DFT). Ca3Ru2O7 can be easily cleaved along the (001) plane, yielding a smooth,…
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…
Bi$_2$Se$_3$ is one of the most promising topological insulators, but it suffers from intrinsic n-doping due to Se-vacancies, which shifts the Fermi level into the bulk conduction band, leading to topologically trivial carriers. Recently it…
