The structure of liquid water at an extended hydrophobic surface

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed analysis of the structural properties of the liquid farther from the surface can be understood as effects imposed by this surface structure, and the results show that the hydration structure of large hydrophobic surfaces can be very different from that of small hydrophilic molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hot charge-transfer excitons set the time limit for charge separation at donor/acceptor interfaces in organic photovoltaics

TL;DR: This real-time view of hot CT exciton formation and relaxation using femtosecond nonlinear optical spectroscopies and non-adiabatic mixed quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics simulations in the phthalocyanine-fullerene model OPV system sets the fundamental time limit for competitive charge separation channels that lead to efficient photocurrent generation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparison of the structure and dynamics of liquid water at hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces—a molecular dynamics simulation study

TL;DR: In this article, the structure and dynamics of liquid water at the interface with three solid surfaces have been investigated via molecular dynamics simulation, and the results of analysis show that, as expected, the solvent near each of the two hydrophobic surfaces behaves essentially equivalently, with loss of hydrogen bonding at the interfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of water in electron-initiated processes and radical chemistry: issues and scientific advances.

Alkali halides in water: Ion–solvent correlations and ion–ion potentials of mean force at infinite dilution

TL;DR: In this paper, the first few alkali halides in water were calculated using the specialization of the extended RISM equation to infinitely dilute systems, and the correlation functions and interionic potentials of mean force were calculated for a set of models corresponding to the first many halide in water.
