Dissociation free energy profiles for water and methanol on TiO2 surfaces

The umbrella sampling methodology is applied in the framework of density functional theory and Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics simulations to obtain the free energy profiles for the dissociation of methanol and water on stoichiometric TiO2 surfaces. In particular, we study the dissociation of wate...
