dc.description.abstract | We present the coupling of two frameworks—the pseudo-open boundary simulation method known as constant potential molecular dynamics simulations (CμMD), combined with quantum mechanics/molecular dynamics (QMMD) calculations—to describe the properties of graphene electrodes in contact with electrolytes. The resulting CμQMMD model was then applied to three ionic solutions (LiCl, NaCl, and KCl in water) at bulk solution concentrations ranging from 0.5 M to 6 M in contact with a charged graphene electrode. The new approach we are describing here provides a simulation protocol to control the concentration of electrolyte solutions while including the effects of a fully polarizable electrode surface. Thanks to this coupling, we are able to accurately model both the electrode and solution side of the double layer and provide a thorough analysis of the properties of electrolytes at charged interfaces, such as the screening ability of the electrolyte and the electrostatic potential profile. We also report the calculation of the integral electrochemical double layer capacitance in the whole range of concentrations analyzed for each ionic species, while the quantum mechanical simulations provide access to the differential and integral quantum capacitance. We highlight how subtle features, such as the adsorption of potassium graphene or the tendency of the ions to form clusters contribute to the ability of graphene to store charge, and suggest implications for desalination | en_US |
