Interfacial Ice Density Fluctuations Inform Surface Ice-Philicity

The propensity of a surface to nucleate ice or bind to ice is governed by its ice-philicity─its relative preference for ice over liquid water. However, the relationship between the features of a surface and its ice-philicity is not well understood, and for surfaces with chemical or topographical heterogeneity, such as proteins, their ice-philicity is not even well-defined. In the analogous problem of surface hydrophobicity, it has been shown that hydrophobic surfaces display enhanced low water-density (vapor-like) fluctuations in their vicinity. To interrogate whether enhanced ice-like fluctuations are similarly observed near ice-philic surfaces, here we use molecular simulations and enhanced sampling techniques. Using a family of model surfaces for which the wetting coefficient, k , has previously been characterized, we show that the free energy of observing rare interfacial ice-density fluctuations decreases monotonically with increasing k . By utilizing this connection, we investigate a set of fcc systems and find that the (110) surface is more ice-philic than the (111) or (100) surfaces. By additionally analyzing the structure of interfacial ice, we find that all surfaces prefer to bind to the basal plane of ice, and the topographical complementarity of the (110) surface to the basal plane explains its higher ice-philicity. Using enhanced interfacial ice-like fluctuations as a measure of surface ice-philicity, we then characterize the ice-philicity of chemically heterogeneous and topologically complex systems. In particular, we study the spruce budworm antifreeze protein (sbwAFP), which binds to ice using a known ice-binding site (IBS) and resists engulfment using nonbinding sites of the protein (NBSs). We find that the IBS displays enhanced interfacial ice-density fluctuations and is therefore more ice-philic than the two NBSs studied. We also find the two NBSs are similarly ice-phobic. By establishing a connection between interfacial ice-like fluctuations and surface ice-philicity, our findings thus provide a way to characterize the ice-philicity of heterogeneous surfaces.

Engineering the Microstructure and Morphology of Explosive Films via Control of Interfacial Energy

Physical vapor deposition of organic explosives enables growth of polycrystalline films with a unique microstructure and morphology compared to the bulk material. This study demonstrates the ability to control crystal orientation and porosity in pentaerythritol tetranitrate films by varying the interfacial energy between the substrate and the vapor-deposited explosive. Additionally, variation in density, porosity, surface roughness, and optical properties is achieved in the explosive film, with significant implications for initiation sensitivity and detonation performance of the explosive material. Various surface science techniques, including angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and multiliquid contact angle analysis, are utilized to characterize interfacial characteristics between the substrate and explosive film. Optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy of pentaerythritol tetranitrate surfaces and fracture cross sections illustrate the difference in morphology evolution and the microstructure achieved through surface energy modification. X-ray diffraction studies with the Tilt-A-Whirl three-dimensional pole figure rendering and texture analysis software suite reveal that high surface energy substrates result in a preferred (110) out-of-plane orientation of pentaerythritol tetranitrate crystallites and denser films. Low surface energy substrates create more randomly textured pentaerythritol tetranitrate and lead to nanoscale porosity and lower density films. This work furthers the scientific basis for interfacial engineering of polycrystalline organic explosive films through control of surface energy, enabling future study of dynamic and reactive detonative phenomena at the microscale. Results of this study also have potential applications to active pharmaceutical ingredients, stimuli-responsive polymer films, organic thin film transistors, and other areas.

Hydration structure and water exchange kinetics at xenotime–water interfaces: implications for rare earth minerals separation

Hydration of surface ions gives rise to structural heterogeneity and variable exchange kinetics of water at complex mineral–water interfaces. In this work, we employ ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations and water adsorption calorimetry to examine the aqueous interfaces of xenotime, a phosphate mineral that contains predominantly Y 3+ and heavy rare earth elements. Consistent with natural crystal morphology, xenotime is predicted to have a tetragonal prismatic shape, dominated by the {100} surface. Hydration of this surface induces multilayer interfacial water structures with distinct OH orientations, which agrees with recent crystal truncation rod measurements. The exchange kinetics between two adjacent water layers exhibits a wide range of underlying timescales (5–180 picoseconds), dictated by ion–water electrostatics. Adsorption of a bidentate hydroxamate ligand reveals that {100} xenotime surface can only accommodate monodentate coordination with water exchange kinetics strongly depending on specific ligand orientation, prompting us to reconsider traditional strategies for selective separation of rare-earth minerals.

Insight of Synthesis of Single Crystal Ni-Rich LiNi 1-x-y Co x Mn y O 2 Cathodes

Single-crystal Ni-rich LiNi 1-x-y Co x Mn y O 2 (NCM) cathodes have garnered widespread attention in the lithium-ion battery community due to their unique advantages in mechanical performance and their ability to minimize interfacial electrochemical side reactions. The synthesis of single-crystal materials with monodisperse and appropriate size, minimal lattice defects, and highly ordered structures is the key for high-performance batteries. However, achieving this goal poses challenges due to the lack of in-depth understanding regarding specific experimental parameters and the solid reaction mechanism during the synthesis process. Further, in this review, the aim is to provide an in-depth analysis of the critical process parameters involved in the synthesis and their impact on crystal morphology, structure, and electrochemical performance. Consequently, the first section focuses on the effect of the precursor morphology, lithium salt, atmosphere, and sintering procedure. In the second section, the study delves into an in-depth discussion of the solid reaction and crystal growth mechanism. Lastly, it is concluded by highlighting the prospects and challenges associated with the synthesis and application of single-crystal Ni-rich NCM cathodes.

Convective flow effects on protein crystal growth

The long-term stability of the interferometric setup for the monitoring of protein morphologies has been improved. Growth or dissolution of a crystal on a 100 A scale can now be clearly distinguished from dimensional changes occurring within the optical path of the interferometer. This capability of simultaneously monitoring the local interfacial displacement at several widely-spaced positions on the crystal surface with high local depth resolution, has already yielded novel results. We found with lysozyme that (1) the normal growth rate is oscillatory, and (2) the mean growth step density is greater at the periphery of a facet than in its center. The repartitioning of Na(+) and Cl(-) ions between lysozyme solutions and crystals was studied for a wide range of crystallization conditions. A nucleation-growth-repartitioning model was developed to interpret the large body of data in a unified way. The results strongly suggests that (1) the ion to lysozyme ratio in the crystal depends mostly on kinetic rather than crystallographic parameters, and (2) lysozyme crystals possess a salt-rich core with a diameter on the order of 10 microns. The computational model for diffusive-convective transport in protein crystallization (see the First Report) has been applied to a realistic growth cell geometry, taking into account the findings of the above repartitioning studies. These results show that some elements of a moving boundary problem must be incorporated into the model in order to obtain a more realistic description. Our experimental setup for light scattering investigations of aggregation and nucleation in protein solutions has been extensively tested. Scattering intensity measurements with a true Rayleigh scatterer produced systematically increased forward scattering, indicating problems with glare. These have been resolved. Preliminary measurements with supersaturated lysozyme solutions revealed that the scatterers grow with time. Work has begun on a computer program for the unified evaluation of simultaneously obtained, multi-angle static and dynamic light scattering data.

Numerical modeling of diffusive physical vapor transport in cylindrical ampoules

Diffusion limited physical vapor transport in closed cylindrical ampoules of aspect ratio (length/radius) between 0.5 and 10 was studied numerically. The transport of a crystal forming component A through an inert component B, which undergoes zero net transport, was considered. A case in which the partial pressure of B is comparable to that of A, as well as systems with very low partial pressures of B (impurity cases) were treated. Concentrations and velocity distributions were obtained from the coupled transport equations for momentum, mass and components. It was found that the interdiffusion of components in viscous interaction with the container walls leads to (1) recirculation of component B, even in the absence of gravity; (2) concentration gradients normal to the main transport direction in the vapor space; and (3) non-uniform interfacial concentration gradients and, hence, non-uniform crystal growth rates.

Facet-Dependent Ni Segregation in a Micron-Sized Single-Crystal Li 1.2 Ni 0.2 Mn 0.6 O 2 Cathode

Elemental surface segregation in cathode materials is critical for determining the phase and interfacial reaction between electrode and electrolyte, which consequently affects the electrochemical properties. Single-crystal cathode of Li 1.2 Ni 0.2 Mn 0.6 O 2 and Li 1.2 Ni 0.2 Mn 0.6 O 1.95 F 0.05 with an octahedral morphology of (102) and (003) dominated facets have been manifested to show enhanced electrochemical properties. However, the surface structural features of such single crystals have not been investigated. Herein, using scanning transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and electron energy loss spectroscopy, we probe the elemental surface segregation characteristics in these single-crystal cathode. We reveal that Ni surface segregation shows dependence on the crystal facet such that it occurs on crystal facets with a mix of cations and anions, but not on the facets with only cations or anions. Furthermore, facet-dependent surface reconstructions are observed, featuring a spinel-like structure at the Ni-rich facet but rock-salt structure at the facet without Ni segregation. The commonly known Mn reduction appears at the single crystal surfaces, more pronounced at the facet without Ni segregation. We further reveal that fluorination leads to the stabilization of surface oxygens. In conclusion, this study provides detailed structural and chemical information about the facet-dependent Ni surface segregation and the resulted phase formation in the rather less explored micron-sized octahedral Li 1.2 Ni 0.2 Mn 0.6 O 2 and Li 1.2 Ni 0.2 Mn 0.6 O 1.95 F 0.05 single crystals, which is key to further exploration of electrochemical properties of cathode in the form of micro-sized single crystal.

Pathways for Nucleation and Growth in Confined Spaces and at Interfaces

Mineral crystallization is central to myriad natural processes from the formation of snowflakes to stalagmites, but the molecular-scale mechanisms are often far more complex than models reflect. Feedbacks between the hydro-, bio-, and geo-spheres drive complex crystallization processes that challenge our ability to observe and quantify them, motivating an expansion of crystallization theories. Here, in this article, we discuss how the driving forces and timescales of nucleation are influenced by factors ranging from simple geometric confinement to distinct interfacial solution structures involving solvent organization, electrical double layers, and surface charging effects. Taken together, these ubiquitous natural phenomena can preserve metastable intermediates, drive precipitation of undersaturated phases, and modulate crystallization in time and space.

Effect of Hydrophilicity and Interfacial Water Structure on Particle Attachment

Oriented attachment (OA) of nanoparticles is an important and common crystallization pathway. Efforts to isolate and quantify the interparticle forces that underlie OA have only recently been initiated and the role played by the interfacial solvent structure in the confined region between nanocrystal surfaces in enabling and controlling OA remains an open question. In this work, classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to compute the free energy landscape of nanoparticles approaching mineral substrates in both vacuum and pure water. Periclase (MgO), muscovite (KAl 3 Si 3 O 10 (OH) 2 ), and pyrophyllite (Al 2 Si 4 O 10 (OH) 2 ) nanoparticles exposing the (100), (001), and (001) surfaces, respectively, were brought to contact with substrates exposing the same surfaces. These mineral surfaces were selected to investigate a range of hydrophilicities (periclase > muscovite > pyrophyllite). The MD simulations revealed that the interfacial water structure created free energy minima for nanoparticle approach that corresponded to integer numbers of intervening water layers. The depth of the free energy minima and the free energy barriers between minima correlated positively with the hydrophilicity of the mineral surface. While the range of solvent-mediated interactions was predicted to be short (a few intervening water layers at most for MgO), the free energy barriers were calculated to be large (fraction of an eV per nm 2 ) and the effect of misalignment diminished rapidly with the number of intervening water layers. The results help explain the formation of mesocrystals and the observed ability of nanoparticles to rotate before attachment while in a long-lived solvent-separated state.

Nanoscale Amorphization of Poly(Triarylamine) for Efficient and Stable Inverted Perovskite Photovoltaics

Perovskite solar modules require hole-selective layers that combine efficient charge extraction, interfacial uniformity and scalable processing. Poly(triarylamine) (PTAA) is widely used in high-performance inverted perovskite photovoltaics, but its nanoscale crystallization and aggregation on indium tin oxide can disrupt film continuity, increase interfacial recombination and limit module stability. Here we show that 4-fluorobenzylphosphonic acid (4FBPA) modifies the surface of indium tin oxide to induce nanoscale amorphization of PTAA, forming a uniform sub-10-nm hole-selective layer. The molecule binds to indium tin oxide through a dehydration reaction, tunes the work function and surface free energy of the photoanode, and improves energy-level alignment with PTAA. The resulting amorphous PTAA film shows enhanced conductivity and hole extraction, suppresses non-radiative recombination at the buried interface and promotes more uniform perovskite growth. Inverted perovskite solar cells reach a power conversion efficiency of 26.63%, while blade-coated modules achieve a certified quasi-steady-state efficiency of 23.01%. The modules retain 95.9% of their initial efficiency after 2,600 hours of maximum-power-point operation under 1-sun illumination at 65 +- 5 degrees C in nitrogen. These results identify nanoscale amorphization of polymeric hole-selective layers as a route to efficient and stable inverted perovskite photovoltaics.

The mechanism of growth of quartz crystals into fused silica

It is proposed that the growth of quartz crystals into fused silica is effected by a mechanism involving the breaking of an Si-O bond and its association with an OH group, followed by cooperative motion of the nonbridging oxygen and the hydroxyl group which results in the crystallization of a row of several molecules along a crystalline-amorphous interfacial ledge. This mechanism explains, at least qualitatively, all the results of the earlier experimental study of the dependence of quartz crystal growth upon applied pressure: large negative activation volume; single activation enthalpy below Si-O bond energy; growth velocity constant in time, proportional to the hydroxyl and chlorine content, decreasing with increasing degree of reduction, and enhanced by nonhydrostatic stresses; lower pre-exponential for the synthetic than for the natural silica.

Mechanisms of Three-Dimensional Solid-Phase Epitaxial Crystallization of Strontium Titanate

Strontium titanate (SrTiO 3 , STO) is a complex metal oxide with a cubic perovskite crystal structure. Due to its easily described and understood crystal structure in the cubic phase, STO is an ideal model system for exploring the mechanistic details of solid-phase epitaxy (SPE) in complex oxides. SPE is a crystallization approach that aims to guide crystal growth at low homologous temperatures to achieve targeted microstructures. Beyond planar thin films, SPE can also exploit the addition of a chemically inert, noncrystallizing, amorphous obstacle in the path of crystallization to generate complex three-dimensional structures. The introduction of this mask fundamentally alters the SPE process, inducing a transition from two- to three-dimensional geometries and from vertical to lateral crystal growth under the influence of the crystal/mask/amorphous boundary. Using a combination of molecular dynamics simulations and experiments, we identify several unique phenomena in the nanoscale growth behaviors in both conventional (unmasked) and masked SPE. Examining conventional SPE of STO, we find that crystallization at the interface is strongly correlated to, and potentially driven by, density fluctuations in the region of the amorphous STO near the crystalline/amorphous interface with a strong facet dependence. In the masked case, we find that the crystalline growth front becomes nonplanar near contact with the mask. We also observe a minimum vertical growth requirement prior to lateral crystallization. Both phenomena depend on the relative bulk and interfacial free energies of the three-phase (crystal/mask/amorphous) system.

Quantifying the dislocation content of atomically resolved grain boundary line defects using the Nye tensor

The Nye tensor, which quantifies the density of Burgers vector for a given dislocation line direction, can be effectively used to characterize dislocation content in bulk crystals from atomic-resolution transmission electron microscopy images. The Nye tensor can be calculated from these images, in part because the reference state is simply defined by the lattice of the perfect crystal. The application of the Nye tensor to interfacial line defects, for which the natural reference state is the dichromatic pattern of the two grains in their reference orientation, poses additional challenges. In this work, we present a method that employs the Nye tensor to characterize the edge dislocation content of line defects at grain boundaries from atomic-resolution images. This approach enables us to rapidly characterize all edge dislocation content along a grain boundary. Additionally, the Nye tensor provides information about line defect core structure. Finally, we demonstrate this method on two exemplar defects: a twin boundary disconnection and a facet junction in face-centered cubic Au.

OASIS Observation and Analysis of Smectic Islands in Space

The Observation and Analysis of Smectic Islands in Space (OASIS) project comprises a series of experiments that will probe the interfacial and hydrodynamic behavior of freely suspended liquid crystal films in space. These are the thinnest known stable condensed phase structures, making them ideal for studies of fluctuation and interface phenomena. The experiments seek to verify theories of coarsening dynamics, hydrodynamic flow, relaxation of hydrodynamic perturbations, and hydrodynamic interactions of a near two-dimensional structure. The effects of introducing islands or droplets on a very thin bubble will be studied, both as controllable inclusions that modify the flow and as markers of flow.

Emergent Ferromagnetism in CaRuO 3 /CaMnO 3 (111)-Oriented Superlattices

The boundary between CaRuO 3 and CaMnO 3 is an ideal test bed for emergent magnetic ground states stabilized through interfacial electron interactions. In this system, nominally antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic materials combine to yield interfacial ferromagnetism in CaMnO 3 due to electron leakage across the interface. In this work, we show that the crystal symmetry at the surface is a critical factor determining the nature of the interfacial interactions. Specifically, by growing CaRuO 3 /CaMnO 3 heterostructures along the (111) instead of the (001) crystallographic axis, we achieve a 3-fold enhancement of the magnetization and involve the CaRuO 3 layers in the ferromagnetism, which now spans both constituent materials. Importantly, the stabilization of a net magnetic moment in CaRuO 3 through strain effects has been long-sought but never consistently achieved, and our observations demonstrate the importance of interface engineering in the development of new functional heterostructures.

Comparison on the properties of ITZs in fly ash-based geopolymer and Portland cement concretes with equivalent flowability

Highlights: • Modelled ITZs can effectively avoid the effects caused by different factors and test locations of ITZ. • ITZ properties of PC and geopolymer concretes are compared based on equivalent flowability of binders. • Geopolymer ITZ exhibits stronger bonding than that of PC, and higher mechanical properties than geopolymer paste. • Strong ITZs in geopolymer concrete are attributed to the layer of gel-rich paste with dense microstructures. • Elastic modulus and hardness properties of ITZs in PC concrete are increased due to the CH crystals. This paper aims to compare the properties of interfacial transition zones (ITZs) in Portland cement (PC) concrete and geopolymer concrete. Portland cement and geopolymer pastes were designed with the equivalent flowability to provide similar mix and casting condition of ITZs. Two types of modelled ITZs were prepared to facilitate the nanoindentations across ITZs, microstructural characterization, and comparison on the properties of ITZs with less influential factors. The results showed that the interfacial bonding of ITZs between geopolymer matrix and aggregate is relatively stronger than the counterpart in the PC concrete. There is a high amount of crystalline hydration products in the ITZs of PC concrete, but a layer gel-rich paste with denser microstructures in the ITZs of geopolymer concrete. Additionally, the interface morphology and nanoindentation analysis indicate that the property of ITZs in the modelled geopolymer concrete is not poorer than that of the corresponding geopolymer paste.

Tetragonal Lysozyme Nucleation and Crystal Growth: The Role of the Solution Phase

Lysozyme, and most particularly the tetragonal form of the protein, has become the default standard protein for use in macromolecule crystal nucleation and growth studies. There is a substantial body of experimental evidence, from this and other laboratories, that strongly suggests this proteins crystal nucleation and growth is by addition of associated species that are preformed by standard reversible concentration-driven self association processes in the bulk solution. The evidence includes high resolution AFM studies of the surface packing and of growth unit size at incorporation, fluorescence resonance energy transfer measurements of intermolecular distances in dilute solution, dialysis kinetics, and modeling of the growth rate data. We have developed a selfassociation model for the proteins crystal nucleation and growth. The model accounts for the obtained crystal symmetry, explains the observed surface structures, and shows the importance of the symmetry obtained by self-association in solution to the process as a whole. Further, it indicates that nucleation and crystal growth are not distinct mechanistically, but identical, with the primary difference being the probability that the particle will continue to grow or dissolve. This model also offers a possible mechanism for fluid flow effects on the growth process and how microgravity may affect it. While a single lysozyme molecule is relatively small (M.W. = 14,400), a structured octamer in the 4(sub 3) helix configuration (the proposed average sized growth unit) would have a M.W. = 115,000 and dimensions of 5.6 x 5.6 x 7.6 nm. Direct AFM measurements of growth unit incorporation indicate that units as wide as 11.2 nm and as long as 11.4 nm commonly attach to the crystal. These measurements were made at approximately saturation conditions, and they reflect the sizes of species that both added or desorbed from the crystal surface. The larger and less isotropic the associated species the more likely that it will be oriented to some degree in a flowing boundary layer, even at the low flow velocities measured about macromolecule crystals. Flow-driven effects resulting in misorientation upon addition to and incorporation into the crystal need only be a small fraction of a percentage to significantly affect the resulting crystal. One Earth, concentration gradient driven flow will maintain a high interfacial concentration, i.e., a high level (essentially that of the bulk solution) of solute association at the interface and higher growth rate. Higher growth rates mean an increased probability that misaligned growth units are trapped by subsequent growth layers before they can be desorbed and try again, or that the desorbing species will be smaller than the adsorbing species. In microgravity the extended diffusive boundary layer will lower the interfacial concentration. This results in a net dissociation of aggregated species that diffuse in from the bulk solution, i.e., smaller associated species, which are more likely able to make multiple attempts to correctly bind, yielding higher quality crystals.

An Alternative Hypothesis for How Microgravity Improves Macromolecular Crystal Quality

There is a substantial body of experimental evidence, from this and other laboratories, that strongly suggests that for many proteins crystal nucleation and growth is by addition of associated species that are preformed by reversible concentration-driven self association processes in the bulk solution. We have developed a self-association model for the crystal nucleation and growth of the protein chicken egg lysozyme. The model accounts for the obtained crystal symmetry, explains the observed surface structures, and shows the importance of the symmetry obtained by self-association in solution to the process as a whole. This model also offers a possible mechanism for fluid flow effects on the growth process and how microgravity may affect it. While a single lysozyme molecule is relatively small an octamer in the 43 helix configuration (the proposed average sized growth unit) would have a M.W. approx. 115,000 and dimensions of 5.6 x 5.6 x 7.6 nm. Direct AFM measurements of growth unit incorporation indicate that units as wide as 11.2 nm and as long as 11.4 nm (a 24-mer) commonly attach to the crystal. AFM results from Weichmann et al. (Ultramicroscopy 86, 159-166, 2001) suggest that associated species of up to 40-mers in size add to the (101) faces. These measurements reflect the sizes of units that both added and desorbed from the crystal surface. The larger and less isotropic the associated species the more likely that it will be oriented to some degree in a flowing boundary layer, even at the low flow velocities measured about macromolecule crystals. On Earth, concentration gradient driven flow will maintain a high interfacial concentration, i.e., a high level (essentially that of the bulk solution) of solute association at the interface and higher growth rate. Higher growth rates mean an increased probability that misaligned growth units are trapped by subsequent growth layers before they can be desorbed and try again, or that the desorbing species is more likely to be smaller than the adsorbing species. In microgravity the extended diffusive boundary layer will lower the interfacial concentration. This results in a net dissociation of aggregated species that diffuse in from the bulk solution, i.e., smaller associated species, which are more likely able to make multiple attempts to correctly bind, yielding higher quality crystals.
