Profile of the static permittivity tensor of water at interfaces: consequences for capacitance, hydration interaction and ion adsorption.

We derive the theoretical framework to calculate the dielectric response tensor and determine its components for water adjacent to hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces using molecular dynamics simulations. For the nonpolarizable water model used, linear response theory is found to be applicable up t...
