Heterogeneous surface charge confining an electrolyte solution

Abstract:The structure of dilute electrolyte solutions close to a surface carrying a spatially inhomogeneous surface charge distribution is investigated by means of classical density functional theory (DFT) within the approach of fundamental measure theory (FMT). For electrolyte solutions the influence of these inhomogeneities is particularly strong because the corresponding characteristic length scale is the Debye length, which is large compared to molecular sizes. Here a fully three-dimensional investigation is perfo… Show more
