Surface Tension and Stability of a Nanobubble in Water: Molecular Simulation

Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out for a nanoscale spherical bubble in water at room temperature. The pressure difference between inside and outside of the bubble was investigated and the surface tension was evaluated with assumption of the Young-Laplace (Y-L) equation. The obtained sur...
