Molecular dynamics model uses topological order parameter to show stratification of water molecules based on density.
Water has a complex hydrogen bonding network that should be disrupted by the presence of ions. However, studies have shown that there is little disruption to the hydrogen-bonding network.
Water has some unusual properties due to the hydrogen bonding between its molecules. ... This is due to the water expanding as it is frozen because of the hydrogen forming an open type lattice.
Thus, the isotopic differences in the strength of hydrogen bonds are determined by a delicate balance between the competing two deuteration effects (1) and (2), while those in hydrogen-bond length ...
We investigated rearrangements of the hydrogen-bond network in water by measuring fluctuations in the OH-stretching frequency of HOD in liquid D 2 O with femtosecond infrared spectroscopy. Using ...
In energy storage, the discovery lays the foundation for “hydrogen bond heterostructures”, engineered materials with tailored hydrogen bonding that could dramatically boost battery performance. And in ...
The Role of Water H-Bond Imbalances in B-DNA Substate Transitions and Peptide Recognition Revealed by Time-Resolved FTIR Spectroscopy. Journal of the American Chemical Society , 2011; 133 (15 ...
