报告简介:
ABSTRACT: In this talk I shall report several research findings from my group over the past years, including: (1) New phases of low-dimensional nano-ice and ice clathrate, and helical ice. (2) Superhydrophobic phenomena at the nanoscale, e.g. Lotus effect at nanoscale. (3) Growth pattern of small-sized gold clusters and nanocatalysis. In these studies, tools of computational chemistry, including classical molecular dynamics and quantum molecular dynamics simulations are employed.
