RT Journal Article T1 Premelting-Induced Smoothening of the Ice-Vapor Interface A1 Benet, Jorge A1 Llombart, Pablo A1 Sanz García, Eduardo Santiago A1 González Mac-Dowell, Luis AB We perform computer simulations of the quasiliquid layer of ice formed at the ice-vapor interface close to the ice Ih-liquid-vapor triple point of water. Our study shows that the two distinct surfaces bounding the film behave at small wavelengths as atomically rough and independent ice-water and water-vapor interfaces. For long wavelengths, however, the two surfaces couple, large scale parallel fluctuations are inhibited, and the ice-vapor interface becomes smooth. Our results could help explain the complex morphology of ice crystallites.
