Characterizing the Effects of a “Switchable Water” Additive on the Aqueous Solubility of Small Molecules

Paul Joseph Dyson, Philip Gregory Jessop, Sarika Burra

“Switchable water” is an aqueous solution containing a water‐soluble amine additive that exhibits CO2‐switchable properties, such as large changes in ionic strength, by forming an ammonium bicarbonate salt. Switchable water has been used to reversibly “sal ...

Enhanced Iron Solubility at Low pH in Global Aerosols

Athanasios Nenes, Kalliopi Violaki, Yan Feng

The composition and oxidation state of aerosol iron were examined using synchrotron-based iron near-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy. By combining synchrotron-based techniques with water leachate analysis, impacts of oxidation state and mineralogy on aer ...

Unstable Slip Pulses and Earthquake Nucleation as a Nonequilibrium First-Order Phase Transition

Jean-François Molinari, Fabian Barras

The onset of rapid slip along initially quiescent frictional interfaces, the process of “earthquake nucleation,” and dissipative spatiotemporal slippage dynamics play important roles in a broad range of physical systems. Here we first show that interfaces ...

Far-from-equilibrium transport of excited carriers in nanostructures

Giulia Tagliabue

Transport of charged carriers in regimes of strong non-equilibrium is critical in a wide array of applications ranging from solar energy conversion and semiconductor devices to quantum information. Plasmonic hot-carrier science brings this regime of transp ...

Highly Acidic Ambient Particles, Soluble Metals, and Oxidative Potential: A Link between Sulfate and Aerosol Toxicity

Athanasios Nenes, Hairun Guo

Soluble transition metals in particulate matter (PM) can generate reactive oxygen species in vivo by redox cycling, leading to oxidative stress and adverse health effects. Most metals, such as those from roadway traffic, are emitted in an insoluble form, b ...

Equilibria and Speciation of Chloramines, Bromamines, and Bromochloramines in Water

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Daniela Trogolo

The stabilities and speciation of the halamines in water are difficult to characterize experimentally. We provide theoretical estimates of aqueous standard free energies of formation for inorganic chloramines, bromamines, and bromochloramines, based on hig ...

Comprehensive first-principles study of stable stacking faults in hcp metals

William Curtin, Binglun Yin, Zhaoxuan Wu

The plastic deformation in hcp metals is complex, with the associated dislocation core structures and properties not well understood on many slip planes in most hcp metals. A first step in establishing the dislocation properties is to examine the stable st ...

Quantum chemical studies of reactive species in water

Daniela Trogolo

In this thesis, quantum chemical methods have been applied to elucidate the thermodynamics and the kinetics of reactions involving reactive species in water. Due to their high reactivity in water, many transient species are difficult to study by experiment ...
