Reactions at solid-water interfaces play a foundational role in water treatment systems, catalysis, chemical separations, and in predicting chemical fate and transport in the environment. Over the last century, experimental measurements and…
Dissociation of CO$_2$ on copper surfaces, a model system for understanding the elementary steps in catalytic conversion of CO$_2$ to methanol has been extensively studied in the past. It is thought to be reasonably well-understood from…
Molecular dynamics simulations combined with periodic electronic structure calculations are performed to decipher structural, thermodynamical and dynamical properties of the interfaced vs. confined water adsorbed in hexagonal 1D channels of…
We present a coarse-grained lattice model to study the influence of water on the recognition process of two rigid proteins. The basic model is formulated in terms of the hydrophobic effect. We then investigate several modifications of our…
The catalytic reduction of $\mathrm{CO_{2}/CO}$ is an appealing approach for reducing greenhouse gas concentrations while also producing renewable energy. We used two-dimensional transitional metal carbides known as Mxenes as the most…
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…
A growing body of experiments display indirect evidence of icosahedral structures in supercooled liquid metals. Computer simulations provide more direct evidence but generally rely on approximate interatomic potentials of unproven accuracy.…
Simulation approaches for fluid-structure-contact interaction, especially if requested to be consistent even down to the real contact scenarios, belong to the most challenging and still unsolved problems in computational mechanics. The main…
Unraveling the atomistic and the electronic structure of solid-liquid interfaces is the key to the design of new materials for many important applications, from heterogeneous catalysis to battery technology. Density functional theory (DFT)…
The transport of fluids at the nanoscale is fundamental to manifold biological and industrial processes, ranging from neurotransmission to ultrafiltration. Yet, it is only recently that well-controlled channels with cross-sections as small…
Simulating electrified metal/water interfaces with explicit solvent under constant potential is essential for understanding electrochemical processes, yet remains prohibitively expensive with ab initio methods. We present TRECI, a…
We present large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations based on a machine-learning interatomic potential to investigate the wet etching behavior of various GaN facets in alkaline solution-a process critical to the fabrication of…
Machine-learned interatomic potentials (MLPs) provide near density functional theory (DFT) accuracy at reduced computational cost, but their reliability depends on representative training data and often deteriorates in transition-state…
Discovering heterogeneous catalysts tailored for specific reaction intermediates remains a fundamental bottleneck in materials science. While traditional trial-and-error methods and recent generative models have shown promise, they struggle…
The atomic-scale response of inhomogeneous fluids at interfaces and surrounding solute particles plays a critical role in governing chemical, electrochemical and biological processes at such interfaces. Classical molecular dynamics…
Quaternary phases formed in copper alloys are investigated through a combination of quantum-mechanical and classical computer simulations and active machine learning. Focus is given on nickel, silicon, and chromium impurities in a copper…
The surface charge of a water interface determines many fundamental processes in physical chemistry and interface science, and it has been intensively studied for over a hundred years. We summarize experimental methods to characterize the…
The interfaces between metal electrodes and liquid electrolytes are prototypical in electrochemistry. That is why it is crucial to have a molecular and dynamical understating of such interfaces for both electrical properties and chemical…
