Abstract

Have new states of water been discovered? Utilizing molecular dynamics and first-principles analyses across thousands of models, this paper introduces a dual-limit temperature regulation method under mass and spatial constraints, yielding water molecular chains and 2D water films, uncovering the key to unlocking a new world of water states. This has led to the emergence of dazzling and magical water structures, accompanied by the continuous emergence and summarization of corresponding electrical, optical, thermal, and mechanical laws as new structures appear. Concepts such as "new states of water", "water molecular chains", "spiral ionic networks", "universal dual-limit temperature control method" and "confined physics" are proposed. These insights delve deep into fundamental science, enhancing our understanding of water and exploring its unprecedented states. Furthermore, they extend to charged ions and polar molecules, pioneering new avenues in materials science, nanotechnology, atomic engineering, and energy conversion, with the potential to propel multiple disciplines and shape society.
