💧 A Single Water Molecule’s Strange Journey

On h-BN, water moves 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 like it does on graphene.

We found:
🔹 𝟮.𝟱× lower activation energy
🔹 𝟴× lower friction
🔹 Rich, rotational motion
🔹 Substrate effects matter

Contrasting diffusion pathways of water on graphene/Ni and h-BN/Ni. On graphene/Ni, water diffusion occurs via discrete jumps between equivalent adsorption sites with minimal internal rotation. In contrast, on h-BN/Ni, water exhibits a quasi-continuous motion that combines translation with rotational and precessional dynamics, allowing the molecule to explore a broader range of configurations.
