Understanding the structure and dynamics of water's constituent ions, proton and hydroxide,
has been a subject of numerous experimental and theoretical studies over the last century …

From the stability of colloidal suspensions to the charging of electrodes, electric double
layers play a pivotal role in aqueous systems. The interactions between interfaces, water …

The interfacial region of aqueous systems also known as the electrical double layer can be
characterized on the molecular level with second harmonic and sum-frequency generation …

The selectivity and activity of the carbon dioxide reduction (CO2R) reaction are sensitive
functions of the electrolyte cation. By measuring the vibrational Stark shift of in situ …

Hydrophobic-like water monolayers have been predicted at the metal and some polar
surfaces by theoretical simulations. However, direct experimental evidence for the presence …

Interfacial water structures have been studied intensively by probing the O–H stretch mode
of water molecules using sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy. This surface …

Sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy is a unique and powerful tool for
investigating surfaces and interfaces at the molecular level. Phase-sensitive SFG (PS-SFG) …

A water droplet sensor based on a flow-through front surface electrode is demonstrated. It is
shown that a triboelectric nanogenerator based on a metal-dielectric junction can be utilized …

Porous lubricated surfaces (aka slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces, SLIPS) have been
demonstrated to repel various liquids. The origin of this repellency, however, is not fully …

We study the molecular-scale structure of the surface of Reline, a DES made from urea and
choline chloride, using heterodyne-detected vibrational sum frequency generation (HD …
