Observing the ultrafast electrical charging of liquids

Results extend applicability to diverse systems, from biological membranes to next-generation energy storage devices

29-Apr-2025 - Charged surfaces in contact with liquids – such as biological cell walls or battery electrodes – attract oppositely charged ions from the liquid. This creates two distinct charged regions: the surface itself and a counter-charged region in the liquid: The so-called electrical double layer. While ...
