The aggregation process of pyronin Y (PY) dye into thin films of different smectite clays, LAPONITE® and saponite, is deeply studied by means of electronic absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy and by molecular dynamics simulations.

A procedure for the theoretical study of chemical reactions in solution by means of molecular dynamics simulations of aqueous solution at infinite dilution is described usingab initiosolute-solvent potentials and TIP3P water model to describe the interactions. The procedure is applied to the study of neutral hydrolysis of various molecules (HCONH2, HNCO, HCNHNH2, and HCOOCH3) via concerted and water-assisted mechanisms. We used the solvent as a reaction coordinate and the free energy curves for the calculation of the properties related with the reaction mechanism, namely, reaction and activation energies.

ABSTRACTIn this paper we present three-dimensional molecular dynamics simulations of dislocation nucleation and propagation during thin film deposition. Aiming to identify mechanisms of dislocation nucleation in polycrystalline thin films, we choose the film material to be the same as the substrate – which is stressed. Tungsten and aluminum are taken as representatives of BCC and FCC metals, respectively, in the molecular dynamics simulations. Our studies show that both glissile and sessile dislocations are nucleated during the deposition, and surface steps are preferential nucleation sites of dislocations. Further, the results indicate that dislocations nucleated on slip systems with large Schmid factors more likely survive and propagate into the film. When a glissile dislocation is nucleated, it propagates much faster horizontally than vertically into the film. The mechanisms and criteria of dislocation nucleation are essential to the implementation of the atomistic simulator ADEPT.
