Ionic profiles close to dielectric discontinuities: Specific ion-surface interactions.
We study, by incorporating short-range ion-surface interactions, ionic profiles of electrolyte solutions close to a non-charged interface between two dielectric media. In order to account for important correlation effects close to the interface, the ionic profiles are calculated beyond mean-field theory, using the loop expansion of the free energy. We show that how it is possible to overcome th...
متن کاملDissecting ion-specific dielectric spectra of sodium-halide solutions into solvation water and ionic contributions.
Using extensive equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations we determine the dielectric spectra of aqueous solutions of NaF, NaCl, NaBr, and NaI. The ion-specific and concentration-dependent shifts of the static dielectric constants and the dielectric relaxation times match experimental results very well, which serves as a validation of the classical and non-polarizable ionic force fields used. ...
متن کاملIonic Cloud Distribution close to a Charged Surface in the Pres- ence of Salt
Despite its importance, the understanding of ionic cloud distribution close to a charged macroion under physiological salt conditions has remained very limited especially for strongly coupled systems with, for instance, multivalent counterions. Here we present a formalism that predicts both counterion and coion distributions in the vicinity of a charged macroion for an arbitrary amount of added...
متن کاملFundamental Ion–surface Interactions in Plasma Thrusters
Ion thrusters offer the potential to enable many future interplanetary robotic missions presently under consideration by NASA. To realize the benefits offered by these low thrust devices, the sputtering mechanisms that are responsible for the degradation of thruster components over time must be well understood. Predictions of thruster life depend directly on the material removal rates from thru...
متن کاملDielectric decrement as a source of ion-specific effects.
Many theoretical studies were devoted in the past to ion-specific effects trying to interpret a large body of experimental evidence, such as surface tension at air/water interfaces and force measurements between charged objects. Although several mechanisms were suggested to explain the results, such as dispersion forces and specific surface-ion interactions, we would like to suggest another sou...
