Theory of volumetric capacitance of an electric double-layer supercapacitor

Brian Skinner, Tianran Chen, M. S. Loth +1

Electric double layer supercapacitors are a fast-rising class of high-power energy storage devices based on porous electrodes immersed in a concentrated electrolyte or ionic liquid…

Anomalously large capacitance of an ionic liquid described by the restricted primitive model

M. S. Loth, Brian Skinner, B. I. Shklovskii

We use Monte Carlo simulations to examine the simplest model of an ionic liquid, called the restricted primitive model, at a metal surface. We find that at moderately low temperatu…

Non-mean-field theory of anomalously large double-layer capacitance

M. S. Loth, Brian Skinner, B. I. Shklovskii

Mean-field theories claim that the capacitance of the double-layer formed at a metal/ionic conductor interface cannot be larger than that of the Helmholtz capacitor, whose width is…

Capacitance of the Double Layer Formed at the Metal/Ionic-Conductor Interface: How Large Can It Be?

Brian Skinner, M. S. Loth, B. I. Shklovskii

The capacitance of the double layer formed at a metal/ionic-conductor interface can be remarkably large, so that the apparent width of the double layer is as small as 0.3 Å. Mean-f…

Ionic conductivity on a wetting surface

Brian Skinner, M. S. Loth, B. I. Shklovskii

Recent experiments measuring the electrical conductivity of DNA molecules highlight the need for a theoretical model of ion transport along a charged surface. Here we present a sim…

Non-mean-field screening by multivalent counterions

M. S. Loth, B. I. Shklovskii

Screening of a strongly charged macroion by its multivalent counterions can not be described in the framework of mean field Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) theory because multivalent counte…
