Tutor

Christian Holm, Konrad Breitsprecher

Contents

• Intro Ionic liquids
• Intro classical force fields (FF)
• What type of polarizable FF exists (Drude vs. point-dipole)
• How to parametrize FFs (polarizable and non-polarizable)
• Input from ab-initio QM
• Influence of polarizability on structure and dynamics on ILs
• Mean-field model of Leontyev et al.
• charge scaling as a polarization effect
• Transferability of FFs
