Insight into induced charges at metal surfaces and biointerfaces using a polarizable Lennard–Jones potential

Molecular dynamics models for predicting the behavior of metallic nanostructures typically do not take into account polarization effects in metals. Here, the authors introduce a polarizable Lennard–Jones potential that provides quantitative insight into the role of induced charges at metal surfaces...
