Many hydrogen-bonded liquids, molecular solids, and lowdimensional systems support
anomalous diffusion mechanisms of topological charge defects created by the addition or …

Understanding the hydrated proton is a critically important problem that continues to engage
the research efforts of chemists, physicists, and biologists because of its involvement in a …

The position of electronic energy levels in a phase depends on the surface potentials at its
boundaries. Bringing two phases in contact at an interface will alter the surface potentials …

Continuum electrostatics models for ions in water provide apparent long range electrostatic
explanations for the forces on ions. However the electro-chemical free energy of solvation of …

Conditional and time-dependent radial distribution functions reveal the details of the water
structure surrounding the hydronium during the proton mobility process. Using this …

The surfaces of aqueous solutions are traditionally viewed as devoid of inorganic ions.
Molecular simulations and surface-selective spectroscopic techniques show, however, that …

Autoionization is an important pathway for the relaxation of electronically excited states. In
weakly bonded matter, efficient autoionization channels have been found, in which not only …

Photoelectron spectroscopy from highly volatile liquids, especially from water and aqueous
solutions, has recently become possible due to the development of the vacuum liquid …

Two-dimensional (2D) materials are presently being extensively studied in photo (electro)
catalysis due to their excellent light absorption, high specific surface area, and readily …

Photodetachment is a general property of condensed-phase anions exposed to visible or
ultraviolet light, but its mechanism has not been fully explored until recently. The …
