DOI: 10.1016/j.apsusc.2020.145973

Abstract: Abstract The water-solid interaction is fundamentally important for understanding and controlling the structures of interfacial water. Here we study the initial stage of water adsorption and nucleation on a Cd(0001) surface, through a combination of… read more here.

Abstract: In-situ cryo-electron microscopy in thin amorphous ice films and ice-dynamics simulations reveal polymorph-dependent growth kinetics of nanoscale ice crystals. Hetero-crystalline ice exhibits anisotropic growth: fast-growing facets are associated with low-density interfaces, driving tetrahedral ordering of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42004-024-01117-2

Abstract: Recently, a medium-density amorphous ice (MDA) was synthesized via ball-milling of hexagonal ice, adding complexity to our understanding of the phase diagram of supercooled water and amorphous ice. Here, the authors use molecular dynamics simulations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2414444121

Abstract: Significance Water can form two noncrystalline solids by modulating temperature and pressure: low-density and high-density amorphous ices (LDA and HDA), regarded as glasses of distinct liquid phases. Recently, a medium-density amorphous ice (MDA) with density… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Science"

DOI: 10.1126/science.abq2105

Abstract: Amorphous ices govern a range of cosmological processes and are potentially key materials for explaining the anomalies of liquid water. A substantial density gap between low-density and high-density amorphous ice with liquid water in the… read more here.
