Molecular dynamics simulations of the liquid-vapor interface of a molten salt. II. Finite size effects and comparison to experiment
- Abstract:
- The effects of finite system size on the calculated interfacial properties of the molten salt KI were examined. It was noticed that finite size effects were accounted for by the predictions of capillary wave (CW) theory, for system size beyond 1000 ions. Additional long-range effects arising from the Coulombic interactions did not appear for this reason. System size dependent artefacts were eliminated from sources due to the techniques used to avoid truncation effects in the Coulombic and dispersion interactions.
