  • Hydronium Ion at the water/1,2-dichloroethane interface: Structure, thermodynamics, and dynamics of Ion transfer.
    Journal of Chemical Physics, 2019
    Co-Authors: Ilan Benjamin
    Abstract:

    Molecular dynamics simulatIons including umbrella sampling free energy calculatIons are used to examine the structure, thermodynamics, and dynamics that accompany the transfer of the classical Hydronium Ion (H3O+) across the water/1,2-dichloroethane interface. The calculated free energy of transfer (17 ± 1 kcal/mol) is somewhat larger than the experimental value (14 kcal/mol). A detailed examinatIon of the hydratIon structure is provided, and several dynamical properties as a functIon of the distance along the interface normal are calculated. In particular, it is shown that the Hydronium Ion is transferred as an Eigen species, and while the three hydratIon shell water molecules’ average structure is conserved during the transfer, they may be exchanged with nearby water molecules with a rate that decreases as the Ion enters the organic phase.Molecular dynamics simulatIons including umbrella sampling free energy calculatIons are used to examine the structure, thermodynamics, and dynamics that accompany the transfer of the classical Hydronium Ion (H3O+) across the water/1,2-dichloroethane interface.

  • SolvatIon of the Hydronium Ion at the water liquid/vapor interface
    Journal of Chemical Physics, 2003
    Co-Authors: Liem X Dang
    Abstract:

    In this study, we used constrained molecular dynamics techniques to investigate the transport of a Hydronium Ion across the water liquid/vapor interface. The computed transfer free energy was nearly unchanged as the Hydronium Ion approached the Gibbs dividing surface. The Ion crossed the interface with no substantial minimum free energy, and transport of the Hydronium Ion involved a change in the solvent compositIon of the solvatIon shells around the Ion.

  • neutron scattering study of the dynamics of Hydronium Ion in h3o zr2 po4 3 nasicon across the order disorder transitIon
    Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2004
    Co-Authors: L E Bove, M Catti, And A Paciaroni, F Sacchetti
    Abstract:

    Neutron incoherent scattering measurements were performed on (H 3 O)Zr 2 (PO 4 ) 3 Nasicon by the quasi-elastic spectrometer IN13 (ILL, Grenoble), to characterize the slow proton dynamics of the H 3 O + Ion in this compound. Both quasi-elastic and elastic data were collected at temperatures above and below the order-disorder phase transitIon (T c = 177 K). Quasi-elastic contributIons with peak full widths at half-maximum of 12 and 33 μeV (corresponding to proton jumping times of 110 and 40 ps) were determined at 150 and 200 K, respectively. This supports a confined proton motIon both above (faster) and below (slower) the transitIon temperature, consistent with the full and partial disorder of the Hydronium Ion found in the high-T rhombohedral and low-T monoclinic phase, respectively, by previous neutron diffractIon experiments. Results of the elastic scans vs momentum transfer and temperature are analyzed and discussed.

  • order disorder of the Hydronium Ion and low temperature phase transitIon of h3o zr2 po4 3 nasicon by neutron diffractIon
    Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2002
    Co-Authors: M Catti, R M Ibberson
    Abstract:

    High-resolutIon powder neutron diffractIon data (HRPD, ISIS Facility, U.K.) were collected on (H 3 O)Zr 2 (PO 4 ) 3 between 4 and 300 K. In the range 175-180 K, a ferroelastic first-order phase transitIon from the rhombohedral R3c NASICON structure to a monoclinic distorted one was discovered. Rietveld structure refinements were performed at 300 K (a = 8.74848(3), c = 23.7598(1) A) and 4.5 K (space group C2/c or Cc, a = 15.0663(1), b = 8.7878(1), c = 9.3611(1) A, β = 122.498(1)°). At RT, the Hydronium Ion H 3 O + is pyramidal disordered over two inversIon-related configuratIons. At LT, H 3 O + becomes nearly planar, with two H atoms ordered and hydrogen-bonded to neighboring oxygens, and the third H atom disordered over two close positIons with 2/3 and 1/3 statistical occupancies. RelatIons with the structural features of Hydronium in other structures and the nature of order-disorder are discussed. An atomistic mechanism for proton conductivity is proposed.
