Ultra-fast optical technology reveals how electrical double layers are formed in liquids
A strong laser pulse heats the surface and disrupts the electrical double layer. Credit: MPI-P A charged surface in contact with a liquid that is in contact with a liquid that attracts attractively charged ions from the liquid. This creates two differently charged regions. The surface itself and the charging area in the liquid: it is what is called an…
