Molecular dynamics simulations of the liquid-liquid interface between water and 1,2-Dichloroethane in the presence of weak external electric fields.<div>The effect of the use of 3D periodic Ewald summation and the effect of the simulation setup are discussed.</div><div>A new simple geometric method for designing the simulation cell is proposed. This method was thoroughly tested shown that it mitigates any artefacts to the use of 3D Ewald summation with external electric field.</div>

Extra-long molecular-dynamics simulations are performed to study the interplay between dielectric properties and microstructures of silicon oxynitride. We quantitatively obtained the ionic permittivity and its linear dependence on nitrogen concentration. Analyses on microstructure of the oxynitride show that, as the N concentration increases, N atoms enter Si-O networks creating smaller-sized rings. While overall tendency of dielectric constant is monotonic increase on the N concentration, microscopic characteristics, such as local displacement of atoms, are strongly depend on local bonding environments.

In this article we review the relatively new phenomenon of electropumping in nanofluidic systems, in which nonzero net flow results when polar molecules are rotated by external electric fields. The...
