Unraveling the Spectral Signatures of Solvent Ordering in K-edge XANES of Aqueous Na+
Abstract
The aqueous solvation structure of the Na+ ion is studied both by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and K-edge X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES). In this paper, we present a systematic study contrasting the differences in the predicted XANES spectra, using molecular configurations generated from classical and quantum MD. Using a set of suitable order parameters, we elucidate how the spectroscopic features are influenced by the local solvation structure around the Na+ ion. Lastly, our findings suggest that XANES is sensitive to fluctuations between the first and second solvation shells and can distinguish between classical and quantum interaction representations used to generate molecular ensembles.
