27 Canonical ensemble (NVT) molecular dynamics calculations were
28 performed using the OOPSE molecular mechanics package.\cite{Meineke05}
29 All molecules were treated as rigid bodies, with orientational motion
30 propagated using the symplectic DLM integration method. Details about
31 the implementation of this technique can be found in a recent
32 publication.\cite{Dullweber1997}
33
34 Thermodynamic integration is an established technique for
35 determination of free energies of condensed phases of
36 materials.\cite{Frenkel84,Hermens88,Meijer90,Baez95a,Vlot99}. This
37 method, implemented in the same manner illustrated by B\`{a}ez and
38 Clancy, was utilized to calculate the free energy of several ice
39 crystals at 200 K using the TIP3P, TIP4P, TIP5P, SPC/E, SSD/RF, and
40 SSD/E water models.\cite{Baez95a} Liquid state free energies at 300
41 and 400 K for all of these water models were also determined using
42 this same technique, in order to determine melting points and to
43 generate phase diagrams. System sizes were 648 or 1728 molecules for
44 ice B, 1024 or 1280 molecules for ice $I_h$, 1000 molecules for ice
45 $I_c$, and 1024 molecules for Ice-{\it i} and the liquid state
46 simulations. The larger crystal sizes were necessary for simulations
47 involving larger cutoff values. All simulations were carried out at
48 densities which correspond to a pressure of approximately 1 atm at
49 their respective temperatures.
50
51 Thermodynamic integration involves a sequence of simulations during
52 which the system of interest is converted into a reference system for
53 which the free energy is known analytically. This transformation path
54 is then integrated in order to determine the free energy difference
55 between the two states:
56 \begin{equation}
57 \Delta A = \int_0^1\left\langle\frac{\partial V(\lambda
58 )}{\partial\lambda}\right\rangle_\lambda d\lambda,
59 \end{equation}
60 where $V$ is the interaction potential and $\lambda$ is the
61 transformation parameter that scales the overall potential.
62 Simulations are distributed strategically along this path in order to
63 sufficiently sample the regions of greatest change in the potential.
64 Typical integrations in this study consisted of $\sim$25 simulations
65 ranging from 300 ps (for the unaltered system) to 75 ps (near the
66 reference state) in length.
67
68 For the thermodynamic integration of molecular crystals, the Einstein
69 crystal was chosen as the reference system. In an Einstein crystal,
70 the molecules are restrained at their ideal lattice locations and
71 orientations. Using harmonic restraints, as applied by B\`{a}ez and
72 Clancy, the total potential for this reference crystal
73 ($V_\mathrm{EC}$) is the sum of all the harmonic restraints,
74 \begin{equation}
75 V_\mathrm{EC} = \frac{K_\mathrm{v}r^2}{2} + \frac{K_\theta\theta^2}{2} +
76 \frac{K_\omega\omega^2}{2},
77 \end{equation}
78 where $K_\mathrm{v}$, $K_\mathrm{\theta}$, and $K_\mathrm{\omega}$ are
79 the spring constants restraining translational motion and deflection
80 of and rotation around the principle axis of the molecule
81 respectively. These spring constants are typically calculated from
82 the mean-square displacements of water molecules in an unrestrained
83 ice crystal at 200 K. For these studies, $K_\mathrm{r} = 4.29$ kcal
84 mol$^{-1}$, $K_\theta\ = 13.88$ kcal mol$^{-1}$, and $K_\omega\ =
85 17.75$ kcal mol$^{-1}$. It is clear from Fig. \ref{waterSpring} that
86 the values of $\theta$ range from $0$ to $\pi$, while $\omega$ ranges
87 from $-\pi$ to $\pi$. The partition function for a molecular crystal
88 restrained in this fashion can be evaluated analytically, and the
89 Helmholtz Free Energy ({\it A}) is given by
90 \begin{eqnarray}
91 A = E_m\ -\ kT\ln \left (\frac{kT}{h\nu}\right )^3&-&kT\ln \left
92 [\pi^\frac{1}{2}\left (\frac{8\pi^2I_\mathrm{A}kT}{h^2}\right
93 )^\frac{1}{2}\left (\frac{8\pi^2I_\mathrm{B}kT}{h^2}\right
94 )^\frac{1}{2}\left (\frac{8\pi^2I_\mathrm{C}kT}{h^2}\right
95 )^\frac{1}{2}\right ] \nonumber \\ &-& kT\ln \left [\frac{kT}{2(\pi
96 K_\omega K_\theta)^{\frac{1}{2}}}\exp\left
97 (-\frac{kT}{2K_\theta}\right)\int_0^{\left (\frac{kT}{2K_\theta}\right
98 )^\frac{1}{2}}\exp(t^2)\mathrm{d}t\right ],
99 \label{ecFreeEnergy}
100 \end{eqnarray}
101 where $2\pi\nu = (K_\mathrm{v}/m)^{1/2}$, and $E_m$ is the minimum
102 potential energy of the ideal crystal.\cite{Baez95a}

111 constants for the harmonic springs restraining motion in the $\theta$
112 and $\omega$ directions.}

117 In the case of molecular liquids, the ideal vapor is chosen as the
118 target reference state. There are several examples of liquid state
119 free energy calculations of water models present in the
120 literature.\cite{Hermens88,Quintana92,Mezei92,Baez95b} These methods
121 typically differ in regard to the path taken for switching off the
122 interaction potential to convert the system to an ideal gas of water
123 molecules. In this study, we applied one of the most convenient
124 methods and integrated over the $\lambda^4$ path, where all
125 interaction parameters are scaled equally by this transformation
126 parameter. This method has been shown to be reversible and provide
127 results in excellent agreement with other established
128 methods.\cite{Baez95b}
129
130 Charge, dipole, and Lennard-Jones interactions were modified by a
131 cubic switching between 100\% and 85\% of the cutoff value (9 \AA).
132 By applying this function, these interactions are smoothly truncated,
133 thereby avoiding the poor energy conservation which results from
134 harsher truncation schemes. The effect of a long-range correction was
135 also investigated on select model systems in a variety of manners.
136 For the SSD/RF model, a reaction field with a fixed dielectric
137 constant of 80 was applied in all simulations.\cite{Onsager36} For a
138 series of the least computationally expensive models (SSD/E, SSD/RF,
139 TIP3P, and SPC/E), simulations were performed with longer cutoffs of
140 10.5, 12, 13.5, and 15 \AA\ to compare with the 9 \AA\ cutoff results.
141 Finally, the effects provided by an Ewald summation were estimated for
142 TIP3P and SPC/E by performing single configuration calculations with
143 Particle-Mesh Ewald (PME) in the TINKER molecular mechanics software
144 package.\cite{Tinker} The calculated energy difference in the presence
145 and absence of PME was applied to the previous results in order to
146 predict changes to the free energy landscape.
147
148 Additionally, $g_{OO}(r)$ and $S(\vec{q})$ plots were generated for
149 the two Ice-{\it i} variants (along with example ice $I_h$ and $I_c$
150 plots) at 77K, and they are shown in figures \ref{fig:gofr} and
151 \ref{fig:sofq}. The $S(\vec{q})$ is related to a three dimensional
152 Fourier transform of the radial distribution function, which
153 simplifies to the following expression:
154
155 \begin{equation}
156 S(q) = 1 + 4\pi\rho\int_{0}^{\infty} r^2 \frac{\sin kr}{kr}g_{OO}(r)dr,
157 \label{sofqEq}
158 \end{equation}
159
160 where $\rho$ is the number density. To obtain a good estimation of
161 $S(\vec{q})$, $g_{OO}(r)$ needs to extend to large $r$ values. Thus,
162 simulations to obtain these plots were run on crystals eight times the
163 size of those used in the thermodynamic integrations.

171 simulations composed of TIP4P water.}

182 width) to compensate for the trunction effects in our finite size
183 simulations.}
