Ice Ih–Water Interfacial Free Energy of Simple Water Models with Full Electrostatic Interactions
Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation(2012)
摘要
We employ the cleaving approach to calculate directly the ice Ih-water interfacial free energy for the simple models of water, TIP4P, TIP4P-Ew, and TIP5P-E, with full electrostatic interactions evaluated via the Ewald sums. The results are in good agreement with experimental values, but lower than previously obtained for TIP4P-Ew and TIP5P-E by indirect methods. We calculate the interfacial free energies for basal, prism, and {112̅0} interfaces and find that the anisotropy of the TIP5P-E model is different from that of the TIP4P models. The effect of including full electrostatic interactions is determined to be smaller than 10% compared to the water models with damped Coulomb interactions, which indicates that the value of the ice-water interfacial free energy is determined predominantly by the short-range packing interaction between water molecules. We also observe a strong linear correlation between the interfacial free energy and the melting temperature of different water models.
