49 {In this follow up paper of the basal and prismatic facets of the
50 Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water interface, we present the
51 pyramidal and secondary prismatic
52 interfaces for both the quiescent and sheared systems. The structural and
53 dynamic interfacial widths for all four crystal facets were found to be in good
54 agreement, and were found to be independent of the shear rate over the shear
55 rates investigated.
56 Decomposition of the molecular orientational time correlation function showed
57 different behavior for the short- and longer-time decay components approaching
58 normal to the interface. Lastly we show through calculation of the interfacial
59 friction coefficient that the basal and pyramidal facets are more
60 hydrophilic than the prismatic and secondary prismatic facets.}

75 The Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water quiescent interface has been extensively studied
76 over the past 30 years by theory and experiment. Haymet \emph{et al.} have
77 done significant work characterizing and quantifying the width of these
78 interfaces for the SPC,\cite{Karim90} SPC/E,\cite{Gay02,Bryk02},
79 CF1,\cite{Hayward01,Hayward02} and TIP4P\cite{Karim88} models for water.\cite{Bryk04,Smith05,Wilson08,Wilson10} Nada and Furukawa have studied
80 the the basal- and prismatic-water interface width\cite{Nada95} and crystal
81 surface restructuring at temperatures approaching the melting
82 point\cite{Nada00}.
83
84 It is well known that the surface of ice exhibits a premelting layer at
85 temperatures near the melting point, often called a quasi-liquid layer (QLL).
86 Molecular dynamics simulations of the facets of ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$ exposed
87 to vacuum performed by Conde, Vega and Patrykiejew have found QLL widths of
88 approximately 10 \AA\ at 3 K below the melting point\cite{Conde08}.
89 Similarly, Limmer and Chandler have used course grain simulations and
90 statistical field theory to estimated QLL widths at the same temperature to
91 be about 3 nm\cite{Limmer14}.
92 Recently, Sazaki and Furukawa have developed an experimental technique with
93 sufficient spatial and temporal resolution to visulaize and quantitatively
94 analyze QLLs on ice crystals at temperatures near melting\cite{Sazaki10}. They
95 have found the width of the QLLs perpindicular to the surface at -2.2$^{o}$C
96 to be 3-4 \AA\ wide. They have also seen the formation of two immiscible
97 QLLs, which displayed different stabilities and dynamics on the crystal
98 surface\cite{Sazaki12}.
99
100 There is significant interest in the properties of ice/ice and ice/water
101 interfaces in the geophysics community. Most commonly, the results of shearing
102 two ice blocks past one
103 another\cite{Casassa91, Sukhorukov13, Pritchard12, Lishman13} or the shearing
104 of ice through water\cite{Cuffey99, Bell08}. Using molecular dynamics
105 simulations, Samadashvili has recently shown that when two smooth ice slabs
106 slide past one another, a stable liquid-like layer develops between
107 them\cite{Samadashvili13}. To fundamentally understand these processes, a
108 molecular understanding of the ice/water interfaces is needed.
109 Investigation of the ice/water interface is also crucial in understanding
110 processes such as nucleation, crystal
111 growth,\cite{Han92, Granasy95, Vanfleet95} and crystal
112 melting\cite{Weber83, Han92, Sakai96, Sakai96B}.
113
114 In a previous study\cite{Louden13}, we investigated
115 the basal and prismatic facets of an ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water
116 interface where the ice was sheared relative to the liquid. Using
117 velocity shearing and scaling approach to reverse
118 non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (VSS-RNEMD), simultaneous temperature and
119 velocity gradients were applied to the system, allowing for measurment
120 of friction and thermal transport properties while maintaining a stable
121 interfacial temperature\cite{Kuang12}.
122
123 Paragraph here about hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity, maybe move up
124 more in the paper as well. Talk about physically what it means for a
125 surface to by hydrophobic or hydrophilic, and then we move into
126 how do we define it (mathematically) and then measure the degree
127 of wetting experimentally and theoretically.
128
129 The hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity of a surface can be described by the
130 extent a droplet of water wets the surface. The contact angle formed between
131 the solid and the liquid, $\theta$, which relates the free energies of the
132 three interfaces involved, is given by Young's equation.
133 \begin{equation}\label{young}
134 \cos\theta = (\gamma_{sv} - \gamma_{sl})/\gamma_{lv}
135 \end{equation}
136 Here $\gamma_{sv}$, $\gamma_{sl}$, and $\gamma_{lv}$ are the free energies
137 of the solid/vapor, solid/liquid, and liquid/vapor interfaces respectively.
138 Large contact angles ($\theta$ $\gg$ 90\textsuperscript{o}) correspond to low
139 wettability and hydrophobic surfaces, while small contact angles
140 ($\theta$ $\ll$ 90\textsuperscript{o}) correspond to high wettability and
141 hydrophilic surfaces. Experimentally, measurements of the contact angle
142 of sessile drops has been used to quantify the extent of wetting on surfaces
143 with thermally selective wetting charactaristics\cite{Tadanaga00,Liu04,Sun04},
144 as well as nano-pillared surfaces with electrically tunable Cassie-Baxter and
145 Wenzel states\cite{Herbertson06,Dhindsa06,Verplanck07,Ahuja08,Manukyan11}.
146 Luzar and coworkers have done significant work modeling these transitions on
147 nano-patterned surfaces\cite{Daub07,Daub10,Daub11,Ritchie12}, and have found
148 the change in contact angle to be due to the external field perturbing the
149 hydrogen bonding of the liquid/vapor interface\cite{Daub07}.
150
151 The resulting solid/liquid kinetic friction coefficients were
152 reported, and displayed a factor of two difference between the
153 basal and prismatic facets.
154 In this paper we present the same analysis for the pyramidal and secondary
155 prismatic facets, and show that the differential interfacial friction
156 coefficients for the four facets of ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$ are determined by their
157 relative hydrophilicity by means of dynamics water contact angle simulations.

159 \section{Methodology}
160
161 \subsection{Water Model}
162 Understanding ice/water interfaces inherently begins with the isolated
163 systems. There has been extensive work parameterizing models for liquid water,
164 such as the SPC\cite{Berendsen81}, SPC/E\cite{Berendsen87},
165 TIP4P\cite{Jorgensen85}, TIP4P/2005\cite{Abascal05},
166 ($\dots$), and more recently, models for simulating
167 the solid phases of water, such as the TIP4P/Ice\cite{Abascal05b} model. The
168 melting point of various crystal structures of ice have been calculated for
169 many of these models
170 (SPC\cite{Karim90,Abascal07}, SPC/E\cite{Baez95,Arbuckle02,Gay02,Bryk02,Bryk04b,Sanz04b,Gernandez06,Abascal07,Vrbka07}, TIP4P\cite{Karim88,Gao00,Sanz04,Sanz04b,Koyama04,Wang05,Fernandez06,Abascal07}, TIP5P\cite{Sanz04,Koyama04,Wang05,Fernandez06,Abascal07}),
171 and the partial or complete phase diagram for the model has been determined
172 (SPC/E\cite{Baez95,Bryk04b,Sanz04b}, TIP4P\cite{Sanz04,Sanz04b,Koyama04}, TIP5P\cite{Sanz04,Koyama04}).
173
174 Haymet et al. have studied the quiescent Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water interface
175 using the rigid SPC, SPC/E, TIP4P, and the flexible CF1 water models, and has seen good
176 agreement for structural and dynamic measurements of the interfacial
177 width. Given the expansive size of our systems of interest, and to
178 compare with our previous work, we have chosen to use rigid SPC/E
179 water model in this study.
180
181 \subsection{Pyramidal and secondary prismatic system construction}
182
183 The construction of the pyramidal and secondary prismatic systems follows that
184 of
185 the basal and prismatic systems presented elsewhere\cite{Louden13}, however
186 the ice crystals and water boxes were equilibrated and combined at 50K
187 instead of 225K. The ice / water systems generated were then equilibrated
188 to 225K. The resulting pyramidal system was
189 $37.47 \times 29.50 \times 93.02$ \AA\ with 1216
190 SPC/E\cite{Berendsen87} molecules in the ice slab, and 2203 in the liquid
191 phase. The secondary
192 prismatic system generated was $71.87 \times 31.66 \times 161.55$ \AA\ with
193 3840
194 SPC/E molecules in the ice slab and 8176 molecules in the liquid phase.
195
196 \subsection{Shearing simulations}
197 % Do we need to justify the sims at 225K?
198 % No crystal growth or shrinkage over 2 successive 1 ns NVT simulations for
199 % either the pyramidal or sec. prismatic ice/water systems.
200
201 The computational details performed here were equivalent to those reported
202 in our previous publication\cite{Louden13}. The only changes made to the
203 previously reported procedure were the following. VSS-RNEMD moves were
204 attempted every 2 fs instead of every 50 fs. This was done to minimize
205 the magnitude of each individual VSS-RNEMD perturbation to the system.
206
207 All pyramidal simulations were performed under the canonical (NVT) ensamble
208 except those
209 during which statistics were accumulated for the orientational correlation
210 function, which were performed under the microcanonical (NVE) ensamble. All
211 secondary prismatic
212 simulations were performed under the NVE ensamble.
213
214 \subsection{Droplet simulations}
215 Here, we will calculate the contact angle of a water droplet as it spreads
216 across each of the four ice I$_\mathrm{h}$ crystal facets in order to
217 determine the surface's relative hydrophilicites. The ice surfaces were
218 oriented so that the desired facet was exposed to the positive z dimension.
219 The sizes and number of molecules in each of the surfaces is given in Table
220 \ref{tab:ice_sheets}. Molecular restraints were applied to the center of mass
221 of the rigid bodies to prevent surface melting, however the molecules were
222 allowed to reorient themselves freely. The water doplet to be placed on the
223 surface contained 2048 SPC/E molecules, which has been found to produce
224 agreement for the Young contact angle extrapolated to an infinite drop
225 size\cite{Daub10}. The surfaces and droplet were equilibrated to 225 K, at
226 which time the droplet was placed 3-5 \AA\ above the surface at 5 unique
227 locations. Each simulation was 5 ns in length and conducted in the NVE
228 ensemble.

231 \section{Results and discussion}
232 \subsection{Interfacial width}
233 In the literature there is good agreement that between the solid ice and
234 the bulk water, there exists a region of 'slush-like' water molecules.
235 In this region, the water molecules are structurely distinguishable and
236 behave differently than those of the solid ice or the bulk water.
237 The characteristics of this region have been defined by both structural
238 and dynamic properties; and its width has been measured by the change of these
239 properties from their bulk liquid values to those of the solid ice.
240 Examples of these properties include the density, the diffusion constant, and
241 the translational order profile. \cite{Bryk02,Karim90,Gay02,Hayward01,Hayward02,Karim88}
242
243 Since the VSS-RNEMD moves used to impose the thermal and velocity gradients
244 perturb the momenta of the water molecules in
245 the systems, parameters that depend on translational motion may give
246 faulty results. A stuructural parameter will be less effected by the
247 VSS-RNEMD perturbations to the system. Due to this, we have used the
248 local tetrahedral order parameter (Eq 5\cite{Louden13} to quantify the width of the interface,
249 which was originally described by Kumar\cite{Kumar09} and
250 Errington\cite{Errington01}, and used by Bryk and Haymet in a previous study
251 of ice/water interfaces.\cite{Bryk04b}
252
253 To determine the width of the interfaces, each of the systems were
254 divided into 100 artificial bins along the
255 $z$-dimension, and the local tetrahedral order parameter, $q(z)$, was
256 time-averaged for each of the bins, resulting in a tetrahedrality profile of
257 the system. These profiles are shown across the $z$-dimension of the systems
258 in panel $a$ of Figures \ref{fig:pyrComic}
259 and \ref{fig:spComic} (black circles). The $q(z)$ function has a range of
260 (0,1), where a larger value indicates a more tetrahedral environment.
261 The $q(z)$ for the bulk liquid was found to be $\approx $ 0.77, while values of
262 $\approx $ 0.92 were more common for the ice. The tetrahedrality profiles were
263 fit using a hyperbolic tangent\cite{Louden13} designed to smoothly fit the
264 bulk to ice
265 transition, while accounting for the thermal influence on the profile by the
266 kinetic energy exchanges of the VSS-RNEMD moves. In panels $b$ and $c$, the
267 resulting thermal and velocity gradients from an imposed kinetic energy and
268 momentum fluxes can be seen. The verticle dotted
269 lines traversing all three panels indicate the midpoints of the interface
270 as determined by the hyperbolic tangent fit of the tetrahedrality profiles.
271
272 From fitting the tetrahedrality profiles for each of the 0.5 nanosecond
273 simulations (panel c of Figures \ref{fig:pyrComic} and \ref{fig:spComic})
274 by eq. 6\cite{Louden13},we find the interfacial width to be
275 3.2 $\pm$ 0.2 and 3.2 $\pm$ 0.2 \AA\ for the control system with no applied
276 momentum flux for both the pyramidal and secondary prismatic systems.
277 Over the range of shear rates investigated,
278 0.6 $\pm$ 0.2 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow$ 5.6 $\pm$ 0.4 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$
279 for the pyramidal system and 0.9 $\pm$ 0.3 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow$ 5.4
280 $\pm$ 0.1 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for the secondary prismatic, we found no
281 significant change in the interfacial width. This follows our previous
282 findings of the basal and
283 prismatic systems, in which the interfacial width was invarient of the
284 shear rate of the ice. The interfacial width of the quiescent basal and
285 prismatic systems was found to be 3.2 $\pm$ 0.4 \AA\ and 3.6 $\pm$ 0.2 \AA\
286 respectively, over the range of shear rates investigated, 0.6 $\pm$ 0.3
287 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow$ 5.3 $\pm$ 0.5 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for the basal
288 system and 0.9 $\pm$ 0.2 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow$ 4.5 $\pm$ 0.1
289 $\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for the prismatic.
290
291 These results indicate that the surface structure of the exposed ice crystal
292 has little to no effect on how far into the bulk the ice-like structural
293 ordering is. Also, it appears that the interface is not structurally effected
294 by shearing the ice through water.
295
296
297 \subsection{Orientational dynamics}
298 %Should we include the math here?
299 The orientational time correlation function,
300 \begin{equation}\label{C(t)1}
301 C_{2}(t)=\langle P_{2}(\mathbf{u}(0)\cdot \mathbf{u}(t))\rangle,
302 \end{equation}
303 helps indicate the local environment around the water molecules. The function
304 begins with an initial value of unity, and decays to zero as the water molecule
305 loses memory of its former orientation. Observing the rate at which this decay
306 occurs can provide insight to the mechanism and timescales for the relaxation.
307 In eq. \eqref{C(t)1}, $P_{2}$ is the second-order Legendre polynomial, and
308 $\mathbf{u}$ is the bisecting HOH vector. The angle brackets indicate
309 an ensemble average over all the water molecules in a given spatial region.
310
311 To investigate the dynamics of the water molecules across the interface, the
312 systems were divided in the $z$-dimension into bins, each $\approx$ 3 \AA\
313 wide, and eq. \eqref{C(t)1} was computed for each of the bins. A water
314 molecule was allocated to a particular bin if it was initially in the bin
315 at time zero. To compute eq. \eqref{C(t)1}, each 0.5 ns simulation was
316 followed by an additional 200 ps NVE simulation during which the
317 position and orientations of each molecule were recorded every 0.1 ps.
318
319 The data obtained for each bin was then fit to a triexponential decay
320 with the three decay constants
321 $\tau_{short}$ corresponding to the librational motion of the water
322 molecules, $\tau_{middle}$ corresponding to jumps between the breaking and
323 making of hydrogen bonds, and $\tau_{long}$ corresponding to the translational
324 motion of the water molecules. An additive constant in the fit accounts
325 for the water molecules trapped in the ice which do not experience any
326 long-time orientational decay.
327
328 In Figures \ref{fig:PyrOrient} and \ref{fig:SPorient} we see the $z$-coordinate
329 profiles for the three decay constants, $\tau_{short}$ (panel a),
330 $\tau_{middle}$ (panel b),
331 and $\tau_{long}$ (panel c) for the pyramidal and secondary prismatic systems
332 respectively. The control experiments (no shear) are shown in black, and
333 an experiment with an imposed momentum flux is shown in red. The vertical
334 dotted line traversing all three panels denotes the midpoint of the
335 interface as determined by the local tetrahedral order parameter fitting.
336 In the liquid regions of both systems, we see that $\tau_{middle}$ and
337 $\tau_{long}$ have approximately consistent values of $3-6$ ps and $30-40$ ps,
338 resepctively, and increase in value as we approach the interface. Conversely,
339 in panel a, we see that $\tau_{short}$ decreases from the liquid value
340 of $72-76$ fs as we approach the interface. We believe this speed up is due to
341 the constrained motion of librations closer to the interface. Both the
342 approximate values for the decays and trends approaching the interface match
343 those reported previously for the basal and prismatic interfaces.
344
345 As done previously, we have attempted to quantify the distance, $d_{pyramidal}$
346 and $d_{secondary prismatic}$, from the
347 interface that the deviations from the bulk liquid values begin. This was done
348 by fitting the orientational decay constant $z$-profiles by
349 \begin{equation}\label{tauFit}
350 \tau(z)\approx\tau_{liquid}+(\tau_{wall}-\tau_{liquid})e^{-(z-z_{wall})/d}
351 \end{equation}
352 where $\tau_{liquid}$ and $\tau_{wall}$ are the liquid and projected wall
353 values of the decay constants, $z_{wall}$ is the location of the interface,
354 and $d$ is the displacement from the interface at which these deviations
355 occur. The values for $d_{pyramidal}$ and $d_{secondary prismatic}$ were
356 determined
357 for each of the decay constants, and then averaged for better statistics
358 ($\tau_{middle}$ was ommitted for secondary prismatic). For the pyramidal
359 system,
360 $d_{pyramidal}$ was found to be 2.7 \AA\ for both the control and the sheared
361 system. We found $d_{secondary prismatic}$ to be slightly larger than
362 $d_{pyramidal}$ for both the control and with an applied shear, with
363 displacements of $4$ \AA\ for the control system and $3$ \AA\ for the
364 experiment with the imposed momentum flux. These values are consistent with
365 those found for the basal ($d_{basal}\approx2.9$ \AA\ ) and prismatic
366 ($d_{prismatic}\approx3.5$ \AA\ ) systems.
367
368 \subsection{Coefficient of friction of the interfaces}
369 While investigating the kinetic coefficient of friction, there was found
370 to be a dependence for $\mu_k$
371 on the temperature of the liquid water in the system. We believe this
372 dependence
373 arrises from the sharp discontinuity of the viscosity for the SPC/E model
374 at temperatures approaching 200 K\cite{Kuang12}. Due to this, we propose
375 a weighting to the interfacial friction coefficient, $\kappa$ by the
376 shear viscosity of the fluid at 225 K. The interfacial friction coefficient
377 relates the shear stress with the relative velocity of the fluid normal to the
378 interface:
379 \begin{equation}\label{Shenyu-13}
380 j_{z}(p_{x}) = \kappa[v_{x}(fluid)-v_{x}(solid)]
381 \end{equation}
382 where $j_{z}(p_{x})$ is the applied momentum flux (shear stress) across $z$
383 in the
384 $x$-dimension, and $v_{x}$(fluid) and $v_{x}$(solid) are the velocities
385 directly adjacent to the interface. The shear viscosity, $\eta(T)$, of the
386 fluid can be determined under a linear response of the momentum
387 gradient to the applied shear stress by
388 \begin{equation}\label{Shenyu-11}
389 j_{z}(p_{x}) = \eta(T) \frac{\partial v_{x}}{\partial z}.
390 \end{equation}
391 Using eqs \eqref{Shenyu-13} and \eqref{Shenyu-11}, we can find the following
392 expression for $\kappa$,
393 \begin{equation}\label{kappa-1}
394 \kappa = \eta(T) \frac{\partial v_{x}}{\partial z}\frac{1}{[v_{x}(fluid)-v_{x}(solid)]}.
395 \end{equation}
396 Here is where we will introduce the weighting term of $\eta(225)/\eta(T)$
397 giving us
398 \begin{equation}\label{kappa-2}
399 \kappa = \frac{\eta(225)}{[v_{x}(fluid)-v_{x}(solid)]}\frac{\partial v_{x}}{\partial z}.
400 \end{equation}
401
402 To obtain the value of $\eta(225)$ for the SPC/E model, a $31.09 \times 29.38
403 \times 124.39$ \AA\ box with 3744 SPC/E liquid water molecules was
404 equilibrated to 225K,
405 and 5 unique shearing experiments were performed. Each experiment was
406 conducted in the NVE and were 5 ns in
407 length. The VSS were attempted every timestep, which was set to 2 fs.
408 For our SPC/E systems, we found $\eta(225)$ to be 0.0148 $\pm$ 0.0007 Pa s,
409 roughly ten times larger than the value found for 280 K SPC/E bulk water by
410 Kuang\cite{Kuang12}.
411
412 The interfacial friction coefficient, $\kappa$, can equivalently be expressed
413 as the ratio of the viscosity of the fluid to the slip length, $\delta$, which
414 is an indication of how 'slippery' the interface is.
415 \begin{equation}\label{kappa-3}
416 \kappa = \frac{\eta}{\delta}
417 \end{equation}
418 In each of the systems, the interfacial temperature was kept fixed to 225K,
419 which ensured the viscosity of the fluid at the
420 interace was approximately the same. Thus, any significant variation in
421 $\kappa$ between
422 the systems indicates differences in the 'slipperiness' of the interfaces.
423 As each of the ice systems are sheared relative to liquid water, the
424 'slipperiness' of the interface can be taken as an indication of how
425 hydrophobic or hydrophilic the interface is. The calculated $\kappa$ values
426 found for the four crystal facets of Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$ investigated are shown
427 in Table \ref{tab:kappa}. The basal and pyramidal facets were found to have
428 similar values of $\kappa \approx$ 0.0006
429 (amu \AA\textsuperscript{-2} fs\textsuperscript{-1}), while values of
430 $\kappa \approx$ 0.0003 (amu \AA\textsuperscript{-2} fs\textsuperscript{-1})
431 were found for the prismatic and secondary prismatic systems.
432 These results indicate that the basal and pyramidal facets are
433 more hydrophilic than the prismatic and secondary prismatic facets.

440 \section{Conclusion}
441 We present the results of molecular dynamics simulations of the pyrmaidal
442 and secondary prismatic facets of an SPC/E model of the
443 Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water interface. The ice was sheared through the liquid
444 water while being exposed to a thermal gradient to maintain a stable
445 interface by using the minimally perturbing VSS RNEMD method. In agreement
446 with our previous findings for the basal and prismatic facets, the interfacial
447 width was found to be independent of shear rate as measured by the local
448 tetrahedral order parameter. This width was found to be
449 3.2~$\pm$ 0.2~\AA\ for both the pyramidal and the secondary prismatic systems.
450 These values are in good agreement with our previously calculated interfacial
451 widths for the basal (3.2~$\pm$ 0.4~\AA\ ) and prismatic (3.6~$\pm$ 0.2~\AA\ )
452 systems.
453
454 Orientational dynamics of the Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water interfaces were studied
455 by calculation of the orientational time correlation function at varying
456 displacements normal to the interface. The decays were fit
457 to a tri-exponential decay, where the three decay constants correspond to
458 the librational motion of the molecules driven by the restoring forces of
459 existing hydrogen bonds ($\tau_{short}$ $\mathcal{O}$(10 fs)), jumps between
460 two different hydrogen bonds ($\tau_{middle}$ $\mathcal{O}$(1 ps)), and
461 translational motion of the molecules ($\tau_{long}$ $\mathcal{O}$(100 ps)).
462 $\tau_{short}$ was found to decrease approaching the interface due to the
463 constrained motion of the molecules as the local environment becomes more
464 ice-like. Conversely, the two longer-time decay constants were found to
465 increase at small displacements from the interface. As seen in our previous
466 work on the basal and prismatic facets, there appears to be a dynamic
467 interface width at which deviations from the bulk liquid values occur.
468 We had previously found $d_{basal}$ and $d_{prismatic}$ to be approximately
469 2.8~\AA\ and 3.5~\AA. We found good agreement of these values for the
470 pyramidal and secondary prismatic systems with $d_{pyramidal}$ and
471 $d_{secondary prismatic}$ to be 2.7~\AA\ and 3~\AA. For all four of the
472 facets, no apparent dependence of the dynamic width on the shear rate was
473 found.
474
475 %Paragraph summarizing the Kappa values
476 The interfacial friction coefficient, $\kappa$, was determined for each facet
477 interface. We were able to reach an expression for $\kappa$ as a function of
478 the velocity profile of the system which is scaled by the viscosity of the liquid
479 at 225 K. In doing so, we have obtained an expression for $\kappa$ which is
480 independent of temperature differences of the liquid water at far displacements
481 from the interface. We found the basal and pyramidal facets to have
482 similar $\kappa$ values, of $\kappa \approx$ 0.0006
483 (amu \AA\textsuperscript{-2} fs\textsuperscript{-1}). However, the
484 prismatic and secondary prismatic facets were found to have $\kappa$ values of
485 $\kappa \approx$ 0.0003 (amu \AA\textsuperscript{-2} fs\textsuperscript{-1}).
486 As these ice facets are being sheared relative to liquid water, with the
487 structural and dynamic width of all four
488 interfaces being approximately the same, the difference in the coefficient of
489 friction indicates the hydrophilicity of the crystal facets are not
490 equivalent. Namely, that the basal and pyramidal facets of Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$
491 are more hydrophilic than the prismatic and secondary prismatic facets.

505 There is significant interest in the properties of ice/ice and ice/water
506 interfaces in the geophysics community. Most commonly, the results of shearing
507 two ice blocks past one
508 another\cite{Casassa91, Sukhorukov13, Pritchard12, Lishman13} or the shearing
509 of ice through water\cite{Cuffey99, Bell08}. Using molecular dynamics
510 simulations, Samadashvili has recently shown that when two smooth ice slabs
511 slide past one another, a stable liquid-like layer develops between
512 them\cite{Samadashvili13}. To fundamentally understand these processes, a
513 molecular understanding of the ice/water interfaces is needed.
514
515 Investigation of the ice/water interface is also crucial in understanding
516 processes such as nucleation, crystal
517 growth,\cite{Han92, Granasy95, Vanfleet95} and crystal
518 melting\cite{Weber83, Han92, Sakai96, Sakai96B}. Insight gained to these
519 properties can also be applied to biological systems of interest, such as
520 the behavior of the antifreeze protein found in winter
521 flounder,\cite{Wierzbicki07,Chapsky97} and certain terrestial
522 arthropods.\cite{Duman:2001qy,Meister29012013} Elucidating the properties which
523 give rise to these processes through experimental techniques can be expensive,
524 complicated, and sometimes infeasible. However, through the use of molecular
525 dynamics simulations much of the problems of investigating these properties
526 are alleviated.
527
528 Understanding ice/water interfaces inherently begins with the isolated
529 systems. There has been extensive work parameterizing models for liquid water,
530 such as the SPC\cite{Berendsen81}, SPC/E\cite{Berendsen87},
531 TIP4P\cite{Jorgensen85}, TIP4P/2005\cite{Abascal05},
532 ($\dots$), and more recently, models for simulating
533 the solid phases of water, such as the TIP4P/Ice\cite{Abascal05b} model. The
534 melting point of various crystal structures of ice have been calculated for
535 many of these models
536 (SPC\cite{Karim90,Abascal07}, SPC/E\cite{Baez95,Arbuckle02,Gay02,Bryk02,Bryk04b,Sanz04b,Gernandez06,Abascal07,Vrbka07}, TIP4P\cite{Karim88,Gao00,Sanz04,Sanz04b,Koyama04,Wang05,Fernandez06,Abascal07}, TIP5P\cite{Sanz04,Koyama04,Wang05,Fernandez06,Abascal07}),
537 and the partial or complete phase diagram for the model has been determined
538 (SPC/E\cite{Baez95,Bryk04b,Sanz04b}, TIP4P\cite{Sanz04,Sanz04b,Koyama04}, TIP5P\cite{Sanz04,Koyama04}).
539 Knowing the behavior and melting point for these models has enabled an initial
540 investigation of ice/water interfaces.
541
542 The Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water quiescent interface has been extensively studied
543 over the past 30 years by theory and experiment. Haymet \emph{et al.} have
544 done significant work characterizing and quantifying the width of these
545 interfaces for the SPC,\cite{Karim90} SPC/E,\cite{Gay02,Bryk02},
546 CF1,\cite{Hayward01,Hayward02} and TIP4P\cite{Karim88} models for water. In
547 recent years, Haymet has focused on investigating the effects cations and
548 anions have on crystal nucleaion and
549 melting.\cite{Bryk04,Smith05,Wilson08,Wilson10} Nada and Furukawa have studied
550 the the basal- and prismatic-water interface width\cite{Nada95}, crystal
551 surface restructuring at temperatures approaching the melting
552 point\cite{Nada00}, and the mechanism of ice growth inhibition by antifreeze
553 proteins\cite{Nada08,Nada11,Nada12}. Nada has developed a six-site water model
554 for ice/water interfaces near the melting point\cite{Nada03}, and studied the
555 dependence of crystal growth shape on applied pressure\cite{Nada11b}. Using
556 this model, Nada and Furukawa have established differential
557 growth rates for the basal, prismatic, and secondary prismatic facets of
558 Ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$ and found their origins due to a reordering of the hydrogen
559 bond network in water near the interface\cite{Nada05}. While the work
560 described so far has mainly focused on bulk water on ice, there is significant
561 interest in thin films of water on ice surfaces as well.
562
563 It is well known that the surface of ice exhibits a premelting layer at
564 temperatures near the melting point, often called a quasi-liquid layer (QLL).
565 Molecular dynamics simulations of the facets of ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$ exposed
566 to vacuum performed by Conde, Vega and Patrykiejew have found QLL widths of
567 approximately 10 \AA\ at 3 K below the melting point\cite{Conde08}.
568 Similarly, Limmer and Chandler have used course grain simulations and
569 statistical field theory to estimated QLL widths at the same temperature to
570 be about 3 nm\cite{Limmer14}.
571 Recently, Sazaki and Furukawa have developed an experimental technique with
572 sufficient spatial and temporal resolution to visulaize and quantitatively
573 analyze QLLs on ice crystals at temperatures near melting\cite{Sazaki10}. They
574 have found the width of the QLLs perpindicular to the surface at -2.2$^{o}$C
575 to be $\mathcal{O}$(\AA). They have also seen the formation of two immiscible
576 QLLs, which displayed different stabilities and dynamics on the crystal
577 surface\cite{Sazaki12}. Knowledge of the hydrophilicities of each
578 of the crystal facets would help further our understanding of the properties
579 and dynamics of the QLLs.
580
581 Presented here is the follow up to our previous paper\cite{Louden13}, in which
582 the basal and prismatic facets of an ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$/water interface were
583 investigated where the ice was sheared relative to the liquid. By using a
584 recently developed velocity shearing and scaling approach to reverse
585 non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (VSS-RNEMD), simultaneous temperature and
586 velocity gradients can be applied to the system, which allows for measurment
587 of friction and thermal transport properties while maintaining a stable
588 interfacial temperature\cite{Kuang12}. Structural analysis and dynamic
589 correlation functions were used to probe the interfacial response to a shear,
590 and the resulting solid/liquid kinetic friction coefficients were reported.
591 In this paper we present the same analysis for the pyramidal and secondary
592 prismatic facets, and show that the differential interfacial friction
593 coefficients for the four facets of ice-I$_\mathrm{h}$ are determined by their
594 relative hydrophilicity by means of dynamics water contact angle
595 simulations.
596
597 The local tetrahedral order parameter, $q(z)$, is given by
598 \begin{equation}
599 q(z) = \int_0^L \sum_{k=1}^{N} \Bigg(1 -\frac{3}{8}\sum_{i=1}^{3}
600 \sum_{j=i+1}^{4} \bigg(\cos\psi_{ikj}+\frac{1}{3}\bigg)^2\Bigg)
601 \delta(z_{k}-z)\mathrm{d}z \Bigg/ N_z
602 \label{eq:qz}
603 \end{equation}
604 where $\psi_{ikj}$ is the angle formed between the oxygen sites of molecules
605 $i$,$k$, and $j$, where the centeral oxygen is located within molecule $k$ and
606 molecules $i$ and $j$ are two of the closest four water molecules
607 around molecule $k$. All four closest neighbors of molecule $k$ are also
608 required to reside within the first peak of the pair distribution function
609 for molecule $k$ (typically $<$ 3.41 \AA\ for water).
610 $N_z = \int\delta(z_k - z) \mathrm{d}z$ is a normalization factor to account
611 for the varying population of molecules within each finite-width bin.
612
613
614 The hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity of a surface can be described by the
615 extent a droplet of water wets the surface. The contact angle formed between
616 the solid and the liquid, $\theta$, which relates the free energies of the
617 three interfaces involved, is given by Young's equation.
618 \begin{equation}\label{young}
619 \cos\theta = (\gamma_{sv} - \gamma_{sl})/\gamma_{lv}
620 \end{equation}
621 Here $\gamma_{sv}$, $\gamma_{sl}$, and $\gamma_{lv}$ are the free energies
622 of the solid/vapor, solid/liquid, and liquid/vapor interfaces respectively.
623 Large contact angles ($\theta$ $\gg$ 90\textsuperscript{o}) correspond to low
624 wettability and hydrophobic surfaces, while small contact angles
625 ($\theta$ $\ll$ 90\textsuperscript{o}) correspond to high wettability and
626 hydrophilic surfaces. Experimentally, measurements of the contact angle
627 of sessile drops has been used to quantify the extent of wetting on surfaces
628 with thermally selective wetting charactaristics\cite{Tadanaga00,Liu04,Sun04},
629 as well as nano-pillared surfaces with electrically tunable Cassie-Baxter and
630 Wenzel states\cite{Herbertson06,Dhindsa06,Verplanck07,Ahuja08,Manukyan11}.
631 Luzar and coworkers have done significant work modeling these transitions on
632 nano-patterned surfaces\cite{Daub07,Daub10,Daub11,Ritchie12}, and have found
633 the change in contact angle to be due to the external field perturbing the
634 hydrogen bonding of the liquid/vapor interface\cite{Daub07}.
