Capacity of the diffuse electric double layer

The differential capacitance between two regions of separated charges is, in general, defined as dQ/d U. Here, Q is the charge on each electrode and U is the voltage. [Pg.103]

The capacity of an electric double layer per unit area is thus [Pg.103]

The index GC is a reminder that we calculated the capacitance in the Gouy-Ghapman model. For sufHdently small surface potentials, we can expand cosh into a [Pg.103]

It is instructive to compare this to the capacitance per unit area of a plate capacitor EEo/d. Here, d is the separation between the two plates. We see that the electric double layer behaves like a plate capacitor, in which the distance between the plates is given by the Debye length. The capacity of a double layer - that is the ability to store charge - rises with increasing salt concentration because the Debye length decreases. [Pg.104]

To avoid confusion, we should point out that as defined above is the differential capacitance. The integral capacitance per unit area is o/rpo- Experimentally, the differential capacitance is easier to measure. [Pg.104]
