چکیده
We present a tutorial discussion of Monte Carlo methods for equilibrium and nonequilibrium problems in interfacial electrochemistry. The discussion is illustrated with results from simulations of three specific systems: bromine adsorption on silver (100), underpotential deposition of copper on gold (111), and electrodeposition of urea on platinum (100).

Nonequilibrium candidate Monte Carlo is an efficient tool for equilibrium simulation.
Metropolis Monte Carlo simulation is a powerful tool for studying the equilibrium properties of matter. In complex condensed-phase systems, however, it is difficult to design Monte Carlo moves with high acceptance probabilities that also rapidly sample uncorrelated configurations. Here, we introduce a new class of moves based on nonequilibrium dynamics: Candidate configurations are generated th...
متن کاملA Nonequilibrium Lattice Gas of Two-species: Monte Carlo Investigations
We present the phase diagram of a far from equilibrium system, mapped by Monte Carlo simulation. The model is a lattice gas of two species and holes. The two species are biased to hop in opposite directions and interact via excluded volume and nearest neighbor attractions. Three phases are found as function of temperature and charge density. Introduction. A comprehensive theory of nonequilibriu...
متن کاملStructure of a sheared soft-disk fluid from a nonequilibrium potential.
The distortion of structure of a simple, inverse-12, soft-disk fluid undergoing two-dimensional plane Couette flow was studied by nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulation and by equilibrium Monte Carlo (MC) simulation with a nonequilibrium potential, under which the equilibrium structure of the fluid is that of the nonequilibrium fluid. Extension of the iterative predictor-corrector ...
متن کاملPemfc Electrochemistry: Simulation of Nonequilibrium Surface Chemistry on 3-dimensional Geometries
The performance of polymer exchange membrane fuel cells is known to be strongly influenced by the electrochemical reactions occurring in the cathode catalyst layer. The dynamics of the elementary reaction steps in the oxygen reduction reaction on platinum based catalysts are investigated to provide a better understanding of the cathode overpotential. We present a new approach using Dynamic Mont...
متن کاملTesting statics-dynamics equivalence at the spin-glass transition in three dimensions
The statics-dynamics correspondence in spin glasses relate nonequilibrium results on large samples (the experimental realm) with equilibrium quantities computed on small systems (the typical arena for theoretical computations). Here we employ statics-dynamics equivalence to study the Ising spin-glass critical behavior in three dimensions. By means of Monte Carlo simulation, we follow the growth...
