Sculpting the oil-water interface to probe ion solvation

Article Abstract:

A new soft-landed ion technique that allows precision tailoring of the interfaces and sensitive monitoring of the ion motion through the electric potential generated by the ions is used for investigating the proton/hydronium transport across the water-organic interface. The findings show that the ion solvation by water at the organic-aqueous interface is probed continuously for various monolayers of water.

Solvent effect on self-assembled structure of 3,8-Bis-hexadecyloxy-benzo[c]cinnoline on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite

Article Abstract:

Two structures, namely V-like and Z-like configuration is formed by 3,8-Bis-hexadecyloxy-benzo[c]cinnoline (BBC16) at highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface. The analysis shows that the solvent used, its viscosity, dissolvability, polarity, and the substrate temperature play a major role in the formation of the two-dimensional self-assembled structures.

Solvation dynamics and evolution of the spatial extent of photoinjected electrons in D2O/Cu(111)

Article Abstract:

The sensitivity of angle-resolved two-photon-photoelectron on the electron momentum parallel to the surface and the extraction of information on the spatial extent of the solvated electron in ice layers on a metal substrate are explored. The results are discussed in comparison to the present understanding of electron solvation dynamics in liquid water.
