Redox Properties of Flavin in BLUF and LOV Photoreceptor Proteins from Hybrid QM/MM Molecular Dynamics Simulation

Flavins play an important role in many oxidation and reduction processes in biological systems. For example, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and flavin mononucleotide (FMN) are common cofactors found in enzymatic proteins that use the special redox prope ...

Photochemical oxidation of phenols and anilines mediated by phenoxyl radicals in aqueous solution

Urs von Gunten, Silvio Canonica, Stephanie Christa Remke

Reactive intermediates formed upon irradiation of chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) contribute to the degradation of various organic contaminants in surface waters. Besides well-studied "short-lived" photo oxidants, such as triplet state CDOM (3 ...

New Insights into the Interface of Electrochemical Flow Cells for Carbon Dioxide Reduction to Ethylene

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Jing Gao, Dan Ren

The implementation of an electrochemical flow cell has enabled improved efficiency for CO2 reduction. However, in situ spectroscopic insights into the interface are still lacking. Here, we investigate a series of copper layers with different thicknesses on ...

Electrochemical Stability of the Reconstructed Fe3O4(001) Surface

Klaus Kern

Establishing the atomic-scale structure of metal-oxide surfaces during electrochemical reactions is a key step to modeling this important class of electrocatalysts. Here, we demonstrate that the characteristic (root 2x root 2)R45 degrees surface reconstruc ...

How to polarise an interface with ions: the discrete Helmholtz model

Hubert Girault, Astrid Johana Olaya Avendano, Grégoire Clément Gschwend

The distribution of electrolytes in an electric field usually relies on theories based on the Poisson-Boltzmann formalism. These models predict that, in the case of a metallic electrode, ionic charges screen the electrode potential, leading to concentratio ...

Grand canonical simulations of electrochemical interfaces in implicit solvation models

Nicola Marzari, Oliviero Andreussi, Nicolas Georg Hörmann

We discuss grand canonical simulations based on density-functional theory to study the thermodynamic properties of electrochemical interfaces of metallic electrodes in aqueous environments. Water is represented using implicit solvation, here via the self-c ...

Reaction pathway of oxygen evolution on Pt(111) revealed through constant Fermi level molecular dynamics

Alfredo Pasquarello, Assil Bouzid, Patrick Gono

The pathway of the oxygen evolution reaction at the Pt(111)/water interface is disclosed through constant Fermi level molecular dynamics. Upon the application of a positive bias potential H2Oads and OHads adsorbates are found to arrange in a hexagonal latt ...
