Altered polar character of nanoconfined liquid water

Atomistic molecular dynamics simulation study of dipolar fluids confined to spherical nanocavities of radii ranging from R_{c}=1 to 4 nm reveals a surprisingly small Kirkwood correlation factor (g_{K}) in water, but not so in dipolar Stockmayer fluid. This results in an ultrafast relaxation of the t...
