Heterogeneous catalysis at the metal surface generally involves transport of molecules through interfacial water layer to access surface, which is a rate-determining step nanoscale. In this study, taking oxygen reduction reaction on electrode in aqueous solution as an example, using accurate molecular dynamic simulations, we propose novel long-range regulation strategy midinfrared stimulation (MIRS) with frequency approximately 1,000 cm-1 applied nonthermally induce structural transition from ordered disordered state, facilitating surfaces room temperature and increasing activity 50-fold. Impressively, theoretical prediction confirmed by experimental observation significant discharge voltage increase zinc-air batteries under MIRS. This MIRS approach can be seamlessly integrated into existing strategies, offering new for accelerating heterogeneous reactions gas sensing within system.

Spatial orderliness, which is the orderly structure of molecules, differs significantly between interfacial water and bulk water. Understanding this property essential for various applications in both natural engineered environments. However, subnanometer thickness presents challenges direct rapid characterization its structural orderliness. Herein, through molecular dynamics simulations infrared spectral analysis a graphene slit pore, we reveal hyperbolic tangent relationship ordering O–H stretching information spectrum. Specifically, symmetric dominated highly ordered structure, while transition to asymmetric corresponded an increase degree disorder. Thus, behavior could serve as useful quick assessment orderliness This work provided insights into water's unique network identified vibrations' key role order, providing insight fields such nanotechnology, biology, material science.

Neurotransmitters are essential in regulating the functions of nervous, cardiovascular, endocrine, and various other tissue systems. Neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease, depression, Alzheimer's disease involve loss catecholamine neurons. One main challenges is accumulation (CA) metabolites. Reducing metabolic aggregation toxicity transmitter molecules remains an open question. In this work, we proposed a novel physical method, terahertz-triggered dedocking, to unbind ligand that accumulate around receptor proteins, potentially alleviating neurodegenerative diseases. We found electromagnetic stimulation at 44.5 THz successfully dissociates DA from binding sites by breaking weak hydrogen bonds. Using molecular docking, identified multiple for CA neurotransmitter within dopamine D2 (DRD2). also characterized terahertz fingerprints theoretical spectra CAs across 0.5 50 range, revealing their microscopic vibrational modes characteristic peak positions elucidating how specific vibrations influence conformational changes. This finding highlights potential radiation nervous system provides new support neural drug discovery intervention neurological disorders.

The heating effect of infrared pulses with varying frequencies on heavy water solutions different concentrations was investigated using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. Numerical calculations indicate that when the pulse are 39 and 72 THz, excite molecules, while temperature light molecules remains unchanged. At 53 99 molecules. Additionally, in far region (1–20 THz), both simultaneously, albeit a significantly reduced energy absorption efficiency. We also conducted comparative analysis efficiency under three distinct modes: Vibrational excitation, rotational microwave heating. results reveal vibrational excitation is seven times This conclusion holds great potential for practical applications.
