Dehydroxylation and Silanization of the Surfaces of β-Cristobalite Silica: An ab Initio Simulation
TL;DR: In this article, the dehydroxylation and silanization processes on the silica surface were studied by ab initio molecular dynamics and the (100 and 111) surfaces of β-cristobalite were used as two possible models of the h...
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling heat transport in crystals and glasses from a unified lattice-dynamical approach.
TL;DR: A unified approach counting the quantum effects is introduced, which is capable of modeling heat transport ranging from crystals to glasses, and naturally bridges the Boltzmann kinetic approach in crystals and the Allen-Feldman model in glasses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface-induced crystallization in supercooled tetrahedral liquids.
TL;DR: This work reports direct computational evidence of surface-induced nucleation in supercooled liquid silicon and germanium, and illustrates the crucial role of free surfaces in the freezing process of tetrahedral liquids exhibiting a negative slope of their melting lines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microscopic Mechanism and Kinetics of Ice Formation at Complex Interfaces: Zooming in on Kaolinite
TL;DR: The molecular mechanism and the kinetics of ice formation on kaolinite, a clay mineral playing a key role in climate science, are unraveled and it is found that the formation of ice at strong supercooling in the presence of this clay is about 20 orders of magnitude faster than homogeneous freezing.

Modeling heat transport in crystals and glasses from a unified lattice-dynamical approach
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel approach to model heat transport in solids, based on the Green-Kubo theory of linear response, was introduced. But it naturally bridges the Boltzmann kinetic approach in crystals and the Allen-Feldman model in glasses, leveraging interatomic force constants and normal-mode linewidths.
