Solvent-Induced Proton Hopping at a Water–Oxide Interface
Despite widespread interest, a detailed understanding of the dynamics of proton transfer at interfaces is lacking. Here, we use ab initio molecular dynamics to unravel the connection between interfacial water structure and proton transfer for the widely studied and experimentally well-characterized water-ZnO(101̅0) interface. We find that upon going from a single layer of adsorbed water to a liq...
متن کاملTurbulent Events and Gas-Side Mass Transfer Coefficients in a Wavy Air-Water Stratified Flow
Turbulence structure on the gas side of a wavy stratified flow was experimentally investigated in a near horizontal 18.7 cm (H) 10 cm (W) 5.5m (L) rectangular duct.By applying the Variable Interval Time Averaging (VITA) technique to the hot wire anemometer measurements frequency of occurrence of turbulent events were detected near the air-water interface. Experimental results showed that fr...
متن کاملTheoretical Study on the Chemical Reactivity in the Armchair Single-walled Carbon Nanotube: Proton and Methyl Group Transfer
Proton transfer (PT) and methyl group transfer (MGT) occurring in small biomimetic systems, Formamide-Formamidic acid (FA-FI), and N-formyl-N-methylformamide-(E)-methyl N-formylformimidate (NMFA-NMFI) are investigated in the gas phase and in single-walled carbon nanotubes by using the density functional theory and the ONIOM approach. It is shown that PT reaction is disfavoured in single-walled ...
متن کاملPhotoinduced Water Oxidation at the Aqueous GaN (101̅0) Interface: Deprotonation Kinetics of the First Proton-Coupled Electron-Transfer Step
Photoelectrochemical water splitting plays a key role in a promising path to the carbon-neutral generation of solar fuels. Wurzite GaN and its alloys (e.g., GaN/ZnO and InGaN) are demonstrated photocatalysts for water oxidation, and they can drive the overall water splitting reaction when coupled with co-catalysts for proton reduction. The present work investigates the water oxidation mechanism...
متن کاملOxygen activation in NO synthases: evidence for a direct role of the substrate
Nitric oxide (NO) and the other reactive nitrogen species (RNOS) play crucial patho-physiological roles at the interface of oxidative stress and signalling processes. In mammals, the NO synthases (NOSs) are the source of these reactive nitrogen species, and so to understand the precise biological role of RNOS and NO requires elucidation of the molecular functioning of NOS. Oxygen activation, wh...
