\begin{abstract} |
| 53 |
In this follow up paper of the basal and prismatic facets of the |
| 54 |
Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water interface, we present the |
| 55 |
pyramidal and secondary prismatic |
| 56 |
interfaces for both the quiescent and sheared systems. The structural and |
| 57 |
dynamic interfacial widths for all four crystal facets were found to be in good |
| 58 |
agreement, and were found to be independent of the shear rate over the shear |
| 59 |
rates investigated. |
| 60 |
Decomposition of the molecular orientational time correlation function showed |
| 61 |
different behavior for the short- and longer-time decay components approaching |
| 62 |
normal to the interface. Lastly we show through calculation of the interfacial |
| 63 |
friction coefficient that the basal and pyramidal facets are more |
| 64 |
hydrophilic than the prismatic and secondary prismatic facets. |

\section{Introduction} |
| 71 |
Explain a little bit about ice Ih, point group stuff. |
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
Mention previous work done / on going work by other people. Haymet and Rick |
| 74 |
seem to be investigating how the interfaces is perturbed by the presence of |
| 75 |
ions. This is the conlcusion of a recent publication of the basal and |
| 76 |
prismatic facets of ice Ih, now presenting the pyramidal and secondary |
| 77 |
prismatic facets under shear. |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
Investigation of the ice/water interface is crucial in understanding |
| 80 |
the fundamental processes of nucleation,\cite{} crystal |
| 81 |
growth,\cite{Han92, Granasy95, Vanfleet95} and crystal |
| 82 |
melting,\cite{Weber83, Han92, Sakai96, Sakai96B}. Insight gained to these |
| 83 |
properties can also be applied to biological systems of interest, such as |
| 84 |
the behavior of the antifreeze protein found in winter |
| 85 |
flounder,\cite{Wierzbicki07, Chapsky97} and certain terrestial |
| 86 |
arthropods.\cite{Duman:2001qy,Meister29012013}%add more! |
| 87 |
|
| 88 |
The Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water quiescent interface has been extensively studied |
| 89 |
over the past 30 years. Haymet \emph{et al.} have done significant work |
| 90 |
characterizing and quantifying the width of these interfaces for the |
| 91 |
SPC,\cite{Karim90} SPC/E,\cite{Gay02,Bryk02}, CF1,\cite{Hayward01,Hayward02} |
| 92 |
and TIP4P\cite{Karim88} models for water. In recent years, Haymet has focused |
| 93 |
on investigating the effects cations and anions have on crystal |
| 94 |
nucleaion and melting.\cite{Bryk04,Smith05,Wilson08,Wilson10} |

\subsection{Pyramidal and secondary prismatic system construction} |
| 118 |
|
| 119 |
The construction of the pyramidal and secondary prismatic systems follows that |
| 120 |
of |
| 121 |
the basal and prismatic systems presented elsewhere\cite{Louden13}, however |
| 122 |
the ice crystals and water boxes were equilibrated and combined at 50K |
| 123 |
instead of 225K. The ice / water systems generated were then equilibrated |
| 124 |
to 225K. The resulting pyramidal system was |
| 125 |
$37.47 \times 29.50 \times 93.02$ \AA\ with 1216 |
| 126 |
SPC/E\cite{Berendsen97} molecules in the ice slab, and 2203 in the liquid |
| 127 |
phase. The secondary |
| 128 |
prismatic system generated was $71.87 \times 31.66 \times 161.55$ \AA\ with |
| 129 |
3840 |
| 130 |
SPC/E molecules in the ice slab and 8176 molecules in the liquid phase. |
| 131 |
|
| 132 |
\subsection{Computational details} |
| 133 |
% Do we need to justify the sims at 225K? |
| 134 |
% No crystal growth or shrinkage over 2 successive 1 ns NVT simulations for |
| 135 |
% either the pyramidal or sec. prismatic ice/water systems. |
| 136 |
|
| 137 |
The computational details performed here were equivalent to those reported |
| 138 |
in our previous publication\cite{Louden13}. The only changes made to the |
| 139 |
previously reported procedure were the following. VSS-RNEMD moves were |
| 140 |
attempted every 2 fs instead of every 50 fs. This was done to minimize |
| 141 |
the magnitude of each individual VSS-RNEMD perturbation to the system. |
| 142 |
|
| 143 |
All pyramidal simulations were performed under the canonical (NVT) ensamble |
| 144 |
except those |
| 145 |
during which statistics were accumulated for the orientational correlation |
| 146 |
function, which were performed under the microcanonical (NVE) ensamble. All |
| 147 |
secondary prismatic |
| 148 |
simulations were performed under the NVE ensamble. |
| 149 |
|
| 150 |
\section{Results and discussion} |
| 151 |
\subsection{Interfacial width} |
| 152 |
In the literature there is good agreement that between the solid ice and |
| 153 |
the bulk water, there exists a region of 'slush-like' water molecules. |
| 154 |
In this region, the water molecules are structurely distinguishable and |
| 155 |
behave differently than those of the solid ice or the bulk water. |
| 156 |
The characteristics of this region have been defined by both structural |
| 157 |
and dynamic properties; and its width has been measured by the change of these |
| 158 |
properties from their bulk liquid values to those of the solid ice. |
| 159 |
Examples of these properties include the density, the diffusion constant, and |
| 160 |
the translational order profile. \cite{Bryk02,Karim90,Gay02,Hayward01,Hayward02,Karim88} |
| 161 |
|
| 162 |
Since the VSS-RNEMD moves used to impose the thermal and velocity gradients |
| 163 |
perturb the momenta of the water molecules in |
| 164 |
the systems, parameters that depend on translational motion may give |
| 165 |
faulty results. A stuructural parameter will be less effected by the |
| 166 |
VSS-RNEMD perturbations to the system. Due to this, we have used the |
| 167 |
local tetrahedral order parameter to quantify the width of the interface, |
| 168 |
which was originally described by Kumar\cite{Kumar09} and |
| 169 |
Errington\cite{Errington01}, and used by Bryk and Haymet in a previous study |
| 170 |
of ice/water interfaces.\cite{Bryk2004b} |
| 171 |
|
| 172 |
The local tetrahedral order parameter, $q(z)$, is given by |
| 173 |
\begin{equation} |
| 174 |
q(z) = \int_0^L \sum_{k=1}^{N} \Bigg(1 -\frac{3}{8}\sum_{i=1}^{3} |
| 175 |
\sum_{j=i+1}^{4} \bigg(\cos\psi_{ikj}+\frac{1}{3}\bigg)^2\Bigg) |
| 176 |
\delta(z_{k}-z)\mathrm{d}z \Bigg/ N_z |
| 177 |
\label{eq:qz} |
| 178 |
\end{equation} |
| 179 |
where $\psi_{ikj}$ is the angle formed between the oxygen sites of molecules |
| 180 |
$i$,$k$, and $j$, where the centeral oxygen is located within molecule $k$ and |
| 181 |
molecules $i$ and $j$ are two of the closest four water molecules |
| 182 |
around molecule $k$. All four closest neighbors of molecule $k$ are also |
| 183 |
required to reside within the first peak of the pair distribution function |
| 184 |
for molecule $k$ (typically $<$ 3.41 \AA\ for water). |
| 185 |
$N_z = \int\delta(z_k - z) \mathrm{d}z$ is a normalization factor to account |
| 186 |
for the varying population of molecules within each finite-width bin. |
| 187 |
|
| 188 |
To determine the width of the interfaces, each of the systems were |
| 189 |
divided into 100 artificial bins along the |
| 190 |
$z$-dimension, and the local tetrahedral order parameter, $q(z)$, was |
| 191 |
time-averaged for each of the bins, resulting in a tetrahedrality profile of |
| 192 |
the system. These profiles are shown across the $z$-dimension of the systems |
| 193 |
in panel $a$ of Figures \ref{fig:pyrComic} |
| 194 |
and \ref{fig:spComic} (black circles). The $q(z)$ function has a range of |
| 195 |
(0,1), where a larger value indicates a more tetrahedral environment. |
| 196 |
The $q(z)$ for the bulk liquid was found to be $\approx $ 0.77, while values of |
| 197 |
$\approx $ 0.92 were more common for the ice. The tetrahedrality profiles were |
| 198 |
fit using a hyperbolic tangent\cite{Louden13} designed to smoothly fit the |
| 199 |
bulk to ice |
| 200 |
transition, while accounting for the thermal influence on the profile by the |
| 201 |
kinetic energy exchanges of the VSS-RNEMD moves. In panels $b$ and $c$, the |
| 202 |
resulting thermal and velocity gradients from the imposed kinetic energy and |
| 203 |
momentum fluxes can be seen. The verticle dotted |
| 204 |
lines traversing all three panels indicate the midpoints of the interface |
| 205 |
as determined by the hyperbolic tangent fit of the tetrahedrality profiles. |
| 206 |
|
| 207 |
From fitting the tetrahedrality profiles for each of the 0.5 nanosecond |
| 208 |
simulations (panel c of Figures \ref{fig:spComic} and \ref{fig:pyrComic}) |
| 209 |
by Eq. 6\cite{Louden13},we find the interfacial width to be |
| 210 |
3.2 $\pm$ 0.2 and 3.2 $\pm$ 0.2 \AA\ for the control system with no applied |
| 211 |
momentum flux for both the pyramidal and secondary prismatic systems. |
| 212 |
Over the range of shear rates investigated, |
| 213 |
0.6 $\pm$ 0.2 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow$ 5.6 $\pm$ 0.4 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ |
| 214 |
for the pyramidal system and 0.9 $\pm$ 0.3 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow$ 5.4 |
| 215 |
$\pm$ 0.1 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for the secondary prismatic, we found no |
| 216 |
significant change in the interfacial width. This follows our previous |
| 217 |
findings of the basal and |
| 218 |
prismatic systems, in which the interfacial width was invarient of the |
| 219 |
shear rate of the ice. The interfacial width of the quiescent basal and |
| 220 |
prismatic systems was found to be 3.2 $\pm$ 0.4 \AA\ and 3.6 $\pm$ 0.2 \AA\ |
| 221 |
respectively, over the range of shear rates investigated, 0.6 $\pm$ 0.3 |
| 222 |
$\mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow$ 5.3 $\pm$ 0.5 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for the basal |
| 223 |
system and 0.9 $\pm$ 0.2 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow$ 4.5 $\pm$ 0.1 |
| 224 |
$\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for the prismatic. |
| 225 |
|
| 226 |
These results indicate that the surface structure of the exposed ice crystal |
| 227 |
has little to no effect on how far into the bulk the ice-like structural |
| 228 |
ordering is. Also, it appears that the interface is not structurally effected |
| 229 |
by shearing the ice through water. |
| 230 |
|
| 231 |
|
| 232 |
\subsection{Orientational dynamics} |
| 233 |
%Should we include the math here? |
| 234 |
The orientational time correlation function, |
| 235 |
\begin{equation}\label{C(t)1} |
| 236 |
C_{2}(t)=\langle P_{2}(\mathbf{u}(0)\cdot \mathbf{u}(t))\rangle, |
| 237 |
\end{equation} |
| 238 |
helps indicate the local environment around the water molecules. The function |
| 239 |
begins with an initial value of unity, and decays to zero as the water molecule |
| 240 |
loses memory of its former orientation. Observing the rate at which this decay |
| 241 |
occurs can provide insight to the mechanism and timescales for the relaxation. |
| 242 |
In eq. \eqref{C(t)1}, $P_{2}$ is the second-order Legendre polynomial, and |
| 243 |
$\mathbf{u}$ is the bisecting HOH vector. The angle brackets indicate |
| 244 |
an ensemble average over all the water molecules in a given spatial region. |
| 245 |
|
| 246 |
To investigate the dynamics of the water molecules across the interface, the |
| 247 |
systems were divided in the $z$-dimension into bins, each $\approx$ 3 \AA\ |
| 248 |
wide, and \eqref{C(t)1} was computed for each of the bins. A water |
| 249 |
molecule was allocated to a particular bin if it was initially in the bin |
| 250 |
at time zero. To compute \eqref{C(t)1}, each 0.5 ns simulation was followed |
| 251 |
by an additional 200 ps NVE simulation during which the |
| 252 |
position and orientations of each molecule were recorded every 0.1 ps. |
| 253 |
|
| 254 |
The data obtained for each bin was then fit to a triexponential decay given by |
| 255 |
\begin{equation}\label{C(t)_fit} |
| 256 |
C_{2}(t) \approx a e^{-t/\tau_\mathrm{short}} + b e^{-t/\tau_\mathrm{middle}} +\ |
| 257 |
c |
| 258 |
e^{-t/\tau_\mathrm{long}} + (1-a-b-c) |
| 259 |
\end{equation} |
| 260 |
where $\tau_{short}$ corresponds to the librational motion of the water |
| 261 |
molecules, $\tau_{middle}$ corresponds to jumps between the breaking and |
| 262 |
making of hydrogen bonds, and $\tau_{long}$ corresponds to the translational |
| 263 |
motion of the water molecules. The last term in \eqref{C(t)_fit} accounts |
| 264 |
for the water molecules trapped in the ice which do not experience any |
| 265 |
long-time orientational decay. |
| 266 |
|
| 267 |
In Figures \ref{fig:PyrOrient} and \ref{fig:SPorient} we see the $z$-coordinate |
| 268 |
profiles for the three decay constants, $\tau_{short}$ (panel a), |
| 269 |
$\tau_{middle}$ (panel b), |
| 270 |
and $\tau_{long}$ (panel c) for the pyramidal and secondary prismatic systems |
| 271 |
respectively. The control experiments (no shear) are shown in black, and |
| 272 |
an experiment with an imposed momentum flux is shown in red. The vertical |
| 273 |
dotted line traversing all three panels denotes the midpoint of the |
| 274 |
interface as determined by the local tetrahedral order parameter fitting. |
| 275 |
In the liquid regions of both systems, we see that $\tau_{middle}$ and |
| 276 |
$\tau_{long}$ have approximately consistent values of $3-6$ ps and $30-40$ ps, |
| 277 |
resepctively, and increase in value as we approach the interface. Conversely, |
| 278 |
in panel a, we see that $\tau_{short}$ decreases from the liquid value |
| 279 |
of $72-76$ fs as we approach the interface. We believe this speed up is due to |
| 280 |
the constrained motion of librations closer to the interface. Both the |
| 281 |
approximate values for the decays and trends approaching the interface match |
| 282 |
those reported previously for the basal and prismatic interfaces. |
| 283 |
|
| 284 |
As done previously, we have attempted to quantify the distance, $d_{pyramidal}$ |
| 285 |
and $d_{secondary prismatic}$, from the |
| 286 |
interface that the deviations from the bulk liquid values begin. This was done |
| 287 |
by fitting the orientational decay constant $z$-profiles by |
| 288 |
\begin{equation}\label{tauFit} |
| 289 |
\tau(z)\approx\tau_{liquid}+(\tau_{wall}-\tau_{liquid})e^{-(z-z_{wall})/d} |
| 290 |
\end{equation} |
| 291 |
where $\tau_{liquid}$ and $\tau_{wall}$ are the liquid and projected wall |
| 292 |
values of the decay constants, $z_{wall}$ is the location of the interface, |
| 293 |
and $d$ is the displacement from the interface at which these deviations |
| 294 |
occur. The values for $d_{pyramidal}$ and $d_{secondary prismatic}$ were |
| 295 |
determined |
| 296 |
for each of the decay constants, and then averaged for better statistics |
| 297 |
($\tau_{middle}$ was ommitted for secondary prismatic). For the pyramidal |
| 298 |
system, |
| 299 |
$d_{pyramidal}$ was found to be 2.7 \AA\ for both the control and the sheared |
| 300 |
system. We found $d_{secondary prismatic}$ to be slightly larger than |
| 301 |
$d_{pyramidal}$ for both the control and with an applied shear, with |
| 302 |
displacements of $4$ \AA\ for the control system and $3$ \AA\ for the |
| 303 |
experiment with the imposed momentum flux. These values are consistent with |
| 304 |
those found for the basal ($d_{basal}\approx2.9$ \AA\ ) and prismatic |
| 305 |
($d_{prismatic}\approx3.5$ \AA\ ) systems. |
| 306 |
|
| 307 |
\subsection{Coefficient of friction of the interfaces} |
| 308 |
While investigating the kinetic coefficient of friction, there was found |
| 309 |
to be a dependence for $\mu_k$ |
| 310 |
on the temperature of the liquid water in the system. We believe this |
| 311 |
dependence |
| 312 |
arrises from the sharp discontinuity of the viscosity for the SPC/E model |
| 313 |
at temperatures approaching 200 K\cite{kuang12}. Due to this, we propose |
| 314 |
a weighting to the interfacial friction coefficient, $\kappa$ by the |
| 315 |
shear viscosity of the fluid at 225 K. The interfacial friction coefficient |
| 316 |
relates the shear stress with the relative velocity of the fluid normal to the |
| 317 |
interface: |
| 318 |
\begin{equation}\label{Shenyu-13} |
| 319 |
j_{z}(p_{x}) = \kappa[v_{x}(fluid)-v_{x}(solid)] |
| 320 |
\end{equation} |
| 321 |
where $j_{z}(p_{x})$ is the applied momentum flux (shear stress) across $z$ |
| 322 |
in the |
| 323 |
$x$-dimension, and $v_{x}$(fluid) and $v_{x}$(solid) are the velocities |
| 324 |
directly adjacent to the interface. The shear viscosity, $\eta(T)$, of the |
| 325 |
fluid can be determined under a linear response of the momentum |
| 326 |
gradient to the applied shear stress by |
| 327 |
\begin{equation}\label{Shenyu-11} |
| 328 |
j_{z}(p_{x}) = \eta(T) \frac{\partial v_{x}}{\partial z}. |
| 329 |
\end{equation} |
| 330 |
Using eqs \eqref{Shenyu-13} and \eqref{Shenyu-11}, we can find the following |
| 331 |
expression for $\kappa$, |
| 332 |
\begin{equation}\label{kappa-1} |
| 333 |
\kappa = \eta(T) \frac{\partial v_{x}}{\partial z}\frac{1}{[v_{x}(fluid)-v_{x}(solid)]}. |
| 334 |
\end{equation} |
| 335 |
Here is where we will introduce the weighting term of $\eta(225)/\eta(T)$ |
| 336 |
giving us |
| 337 |
\begin{equation}\label{kappa-2} |
| 338 |
\kappa = \frac{\eta(225)}{[v_{x}(fluid)-v_{x}(solid)]}\frac{\partial v_{x}}{\partial z}. |
| 339 |
\end{equation} |
| 340 |
|
| 341 |
To obtain the value of $\eta(225)$ for the SPC/E model, a $31.09 \times 29.38 |
| 342 |
\times 124.39$ \AA\ box with 3744 SPC/E liquid water molecules was |
| 343 |
equilibrated to 225K, |
| 344 |
and 5 unique shearing experiments were performed. Each experiment was |
| 345 |
conducted in the NVE and were 5 ns in |
| 346 |
length. The VSS were attempted every timestep, which was set to 2 fs. |
| 347 |
For our SPC/E systems, we found $\eta(225)$ to be 0.0148 $\pm$ 0.0007 Pa s, |
| 348 |
roughly ten times larger than the value found for 280 K SPC/E bulk water by |
| 349 |
Kuang\cite{kuang12}. |
| 350 |
|
| 351 |
The interfacial friction coefficient, $\kappa$, can equivalently be expressed |
| 352 |
as the ratio of the viscosity of the fluid to the slip length, $\delta$, which |
| 353 |
is an indication of how 'slippery' the interface is. |
| 354 |
\begin{equation}\label{kappa-3} |
| 355 |
\kappa = \frac{\eta}{\delta} |
| 356 |
\end{equation} |
| 357 |
In each of the systems, the interfacial temperature was kept fixed to 225K, |
| 358 |
which ensured the viscosity of the fluid at the |
| 359 |
interace was approximately the same. Thus, any significant variation in |
| 360 |
$\kappa$ between |
| 361 |
the systems indicates differences in the 'slipperiness' of the interfaces. |
| 362 |
As each of the ice systems are sheared relative to liquid water, the |
| 363 |
'slipperiness' of the interface can be taken as an indication of how |
| 364 |
hydrophobic or hydrophilic the interface is. The calculated $\kappa$ values |
| 365 |
found for the four crystal facets of Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$ investigated are shown |
| 366 |
in Table \ref{tab:kapa}. The basal and pyramidal facets were found to have |
| 367 |
similar values of $\kappa \approx$ 0.0006 |
| 368 |
(amu \AA\textsuperscript{-2} fs\textsuperscript{-1}), while values of |
| 369 |
$\kappa \approx$ 0.0003 (amu \AA\textsuperscript{-2} fs\textsuperscript{-1}) |
| 370 |
were found for the prismatic and secondary prismatic systems. |
| 371 |
These results indicate that the basal and pyramidal facets are |
| 372 |
more hydrophilic than the prismatic and secondary prismatic facets. |
| 373 |
%This indicates something about the similarity between the two facets that |
| 374 |
%share similar values... |
| 375 |
%Maybe find values for kappa for other materials to compare against? |

\section{Conclusion} |
| 438 |
We present the results of molecular dynamics simulations of the pyrmaidal |
| 439 |
and secondary prismatic facets of an SPC/E model of the |
| 440 |
Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water interface. The ice was sheared through the liquid |
| 441 |
water while being exposed to a thermal gradient to maintain a stable |
| 442 |
interface by using the minimally perturbing VSS RNEMD method. In agreement |
| 443 |
with our previous findings for the basal and prismatic facets, the interfacial |
| 444 |
width was found to be independent of shear rate as measured by the local |
| 445 |
tetrahedral order parameter. This width was found to be |
| 446 |
3.2~$\pm$ 0.2~\AA\ for both the pyramidal and the secondary prismatic systems. |
| 447 |
These values are in good agreement with our previously calculated interfacial |
| 448 |
widths for the basal (3.2~$\pm$ 0.4~\AA\ ) and prismatic (3.6~$\pm$ 0.2~\AA\ ) |
| 449 |
systems. |
| 450 |
|
| 451 |
Orientational dynamics of the Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water interfaces were studied |
| 452 |
by calculation of the orientational time correlation function at varying |
| 453 |
displacements normal to the interface. The decays were fit |
| 454 |
to a tri-exponential decay, where the three decay constants correspond to |
| 455 |
the librational motion of the molecules driven by the restoring forces of |
| 456 |
existing hydrogen bonds ($\tau_{short}$ $\mathcal{O}$(10 fs)), jumps between |
| 457 |
two different hydrogen bonds ($\tau_{middle}$ $\mathcal{O}$(1 ps)), and |
| 458 |
translational motion of the molecules ($\tau_{long}$ $\mathcal{O}$(100 ps)). |
| 459 |
$\tau_{short}$ was found to decrease approaching the interface due to the |
| 460 |
constrained motion of the molecules as the local environment becomes more |
| 461 |
ice-like. Conversely, the two longer-time decay constants were found to |
| 462 |
increase at small displacements from the interface. As seen in our previous |
| 463 |
work on the basal and prismatic facets, there appears to be a dynamic |
| 464 |
interface width at which deviations from the bulk liquid values occur. |
| 465 |
We had previously found $d_{basal}$ and $d_{prismatic}$ to be approximately |
| 466 |
2.8~\AA\ and 3.5~\AA. We found good agreement of these values for the |
| 467 |
pyramidal and secondary prismatic systems with $d_{pyramidal}$ and |
| 468 |
$d_{secondary prismatic}$ to be 2.7~\AA\ and 3~\AA. For all four of the |
| 469 |
facets, no apparent dependence of the dynamic width on the shear rate was |
| 470 |
found. |
| 471 |
|
| 472 |
%Paragraph summarizing the Kappa values |
| 473 |
The interfacial friction coefficient, $\kappa$, was determined for each facet |
| 474 |
interface. We were able to reach an expression for $\kappa$ as a function of |
| 475 |
the velocity profile of the system which is scaled by the viscosity of the liquid |
| 476 |
at 225 K. In doing so, we have obtained an expression for $\kappa$ which is |
| 477 |
independent of temperature differences of the liquid water at far displacements |
| 478 |
from the interface. We found the basal and pyramidal facets to have |
| 479 |
similar $\kappa$ values, of $\kappa \approx$ 0.0006 |
| 480 |
(amu \AA\textsuperscript{-2} fs\textsuperscript{-1}). However, the |
| 481 |
prismatic and secondary prismatic facets were found to have $\kappa$ values of |
| 482 |
$\kappa \approx$ 0.0003 (amu \AA\textsuperscript{-2} fs\textsuperscript{-1}). |
| 483 |
As these ice facets are being sheared relative to liquid water, with the |
| 484 |
structural and dynamic width of all four |
| 485 |
interfaces being approximately the same, the difference in the coefficient of |
| 486 |
friction indicates the hydrophilicity of the crystal facets are not |
| 487 |
equivalent. Namely, that the basal and pyramidal facets of Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$ |
| 488 |
are more hydrophilic than the prismatic and secondary prismatic facets. |
