Note: Heterogeneous ice nucleation on silver-iodide-like surfaces

Abstract:
We attempt to simulate the heterogeneous nucleation of ice at model silver-iodide surfaces and find relatively facile ice nucleation and growth at the Ag(+) terminated basal face, but never see nucleation at the I(-) terminated basal face or the prism and normal faces. Water molecules strongly adsorb onto the Ag(+) terminated face to give a well-ordered hexagonal ice-like bilayer that then acts as a template for further ice growth.
