Figure 2.
Typical snapshot of a vapor nanobubble formed around a heated nanoparticle for a single-component liquid (left) and with a gas dissolved in the liquid (right). In this case, kBTNP/ϵLL is equal to 5.54 and kBTW/ϵLL is equal to 0.97 and the mole fraction of gas molecules xg for the snapshot on the right is set as 0.011. These snapshots are taken at 400 ps where the systems were at the steady state or “quasi equilibrium”.
