“…Additionally, it is interesting to note that n, often termed the frequency dispersion coefficient, does not vary with surface roughness, as has been historically assumed (De Levie, 1965). The effect of the surface roughness on impedance has been the focus of intense research efforts and has resulted in many models such as the well known pore model of de Levie, models based on surface inhomogeneities leading to a distribution of relaxation times (Brug et al, 1984), and more recently in fractal geometry-based models (Nyikos and Pajkossy, 1985;Bates and Chu, 1992). The authors concur with the work of Pajkossy, where in the frequency range investigated the capacitance dispersion is attributed to adsorption effects (Pajkossy, 1994).…”
