\section{The Advancing Contact Angle} |
38 |
The advancing contact angles for the liquid droplets were computed |
39 |
using inversion of Eq. (2) in the main text which requires finding the |
40 |
real roots of a fourth order polynomial, |
41 |
\begin{equation} |
42 |
\label{eq:poly} |
43 |
c_4 \cos^4 \theta + c_3 \cos^3 \theta + c_2 \cos^2 \theta + c_1 |
44 |
\cos \theta + c_0 = 0 |
45 |
\end{equation} |
46 |
where the coefficients of the polynomial are expressed in terms of the |
47 |
$z$ coordinate of the center of mass of the liquid droplet relative to |
48 |
the solid surface, $z = z_\mathrm{cm} - z_\mathrm{surface}$, and a |
49 |
factor that depends on the initial droplet radius, $k = 2^{-4/3} R_0$. |
50 |
The coefficients are simple functions of these two quantities, |
51 |
\begin{align} |
52 |
c_4 &= z^3 + k^3 \\ |
53 |
c_3 &= 8 z^3 + 8 k^3 \\ |
54 |
c_2 &= 24 z^3 + 18 k^3 \\ |
55 |
c_1 &= 32 z^3 \\ |
56 |
c_0 &= 16 z^3 - 27 k^3 . |
57 |
\end{align} |
58 |
Solving for the values of the real roots of this polynomial |
59 |
(Eq. \ref{eq:poly}) give estimates of the advancing contact angle. |
60 |
The dynamics of this quantity for each of the four interfaces is shown |
61 |
in figure 1 below. |

\section{Interfacial widths using structural information} |
64 |
To determine the structural widths of the interfaces under shear, each |
65 |
of the systems was divided into 100 bins along the $z$-dimension, and |
66 |
the local tetrahedral order parameter (Eq. 5 in Reference |
67 |
\citealp{Louden13}) was time-averaged in each bin for the duration of |
68 |
the shearing simulation. The spatial dependence of this order |
69 |
parameter, $q(z)$, is the tetrahedrality profile of the interface. |
70 |
The lower panels in figures 2-5 show tetrahedrality profiles (in |
71 |
circles) for each of the four interfaces. The $q(z)$ function has a |
72 |
range of $(0,1)$, where a value of unity indicates a perfectly |
73 |
tetrahedral environment. The $q(z)$ for the bulk liquid was found to |
74 |
be $\approx~0.77$, while values of $\approx~0.92$ were more common in |
75 |
the ice. The tetrahedrality profiles were fit using a hyperbolic |
76 |
tangent function (see Eq. 6 in Reference \citealp{Louden13}) designed |
77 |
to smoothly fit the bulk to ice transition while accounting for the |
78 |
weak thermal gradient. In panels $b$ and $c$ of the same figures, the |
79 |
resulting thermal and velocity gradients from an imposed kinetic |
80 |
energy and momentum fluxes can be seen. The vertical dotted lines |
81 |
traversing these figures indicate the midpoints of the interfaces as |
82 |
determined by the tetrahedrality profiles. |
83 |
|
84 |
\section{Interfacial widths using dynamic information} |
85 |
To determine the dynamic widths of the interfaces under shear, each of |
86 |
the systems was divided into bins along the $z$-dimension ($\approx$ 3 |
87 |
\AA\ wide) and $C_2(z,t)$ was computed using only those molecules that |
88 |
were in the bin at the initial time. To compute these correlation |
89 |
functions, each of the 0.5 ns simulations was followed by a shorter |
90 |
200 ps microcanonical (NVE) simulation in which the positions and |
91 |
orientations of every molecule in the system were recorded every 0.1 |
92 |
ps. |
93 |
|
94 |
The time-dependence was fit to a triexponential decay, with three time |
95 |
constants: $\tau_{short}$, measuring the librational motion of the |
96 |
water molecules, $\tau_{middle}$, measuring the timescale for breaking |
97 |
and making of hydrogen bonds, and $\tau_{long}$, corresponding to the |
98 |
translational motion of the water molecules. An additional constant |
99 |
was introduced in the fits to describe molecules in the crystal which |
100 |
do not experience long-time orientational decay. |
101 |
|
102 |
In Figures 6-9, the $z$-coordinate profiles for the three decay |
103 |
constants, $\tau_{short}$, $\tau_{middle}$, and $\tau_{long}$ for the |
104 |
different interfaces are shown. (Figures 6 \& 7 are new results, |
105 |
and Figures 8 \& 9 are updated plots from Ref \citealp{Louden13}.) |
106 |
In the liquid regions of all four interfaces, we observe |
107 |
$\tau_{middle}$ and $\tau_{long}$ to have approximately consistent |
108 |
values of $3-6$ ps and $30-40$ ps, respectively. Both of these times |
109 |
increase in value approaching the interface. Approaching the |
110 |
interface, we also observe that $\tau_{short}$ decreases from its |
111 |
liquid-state value of $72-76$ fs. The approximate values for the |
112 |
decay constants and the trends approaching the interface match those |
113 |
reported previously for the basal and prismatic interfaces. |
114 |
|
115 |
We have estimated the dynamic interfacial width $d_\mathrm{dyn}$ by |
116 |
fitting the profiles of all the three orientational time constants |
117 |
with an exponential decay to the bulk-liquid behavior, |
118 |
\begin{equation}\label{tauFit} |
119 |
\tau(z)\approx\tau_{liquid}+(\tau_{wall}-\tau_{liquid})e^{-(z-z_{wall})/d_\mathrm{dyn}} |
120 |
\end{equation} |
121 |
where $\tau_{liquid}$ and $\tau_{wall}$ are the liquid and projected |
122 |
wall values of the decay constants, $z_{wall}$ is the location of the |
123 |
interface, as measured by the structural order parameter. These |
124 |
values are shown in table 1 in the main text. Because the bins must be |
125 |
quite wide to obtain reasonable profiles of $C_2(z,t)$, the error |
126 |
estimates for the dynamic widths of the interface are significantly |
127 |
larger than for the structural widths. However, all four interfaces |
128 |
exhibit dynamic widths that are significantly below 1~nm, and are in |
129 |
reasonable agreement with the structural width above. |

all the surfaces are hydrophilic, the long-time behavior stabilizes |
