Double-layer structure of the Pt(111)-aqueous electrolyte interface

Kasinath Ojha et al.

Summary: This study presents detailed measurements of the double-layer capacitance at the Pt(111)-electrolyte interface near the potential of zero charge (PZC). Strong deviations from traditional Gouy-Chapman-Stern behavior are observed at low electrolyte concentrations, independent of the nature of the electrolyte ions. The capacitance further away from PZC and the trends for increasing ion concentration show ion-specific effects related to ion size or hydration strength. A model is formulated to explain the structure of the electric double layer at the Pt(111)-electrolyte interface, going beyond the Gouy-Chapman-Stern theory.

Establishment of the Potential of Zero Charge of Metals in Aqueous Solutions: Different Faces of Water Revealed by Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Peng Li et al.

Summary: Metal-water interactions were studied through molecular dynamics simulations on Pt(111) and Au(111) surfaces interfaced with water, revealing that first layer water molecules decrease the metal work function while second layer water molecules increase it. Introducing chemisorbed hydrogen with varying coverages modulates the metal-water interactions.

On the Differential Capacitance and Potential of Zero Charge of Au(111) in Some Aprotic Solvents

Ahmed S. Shatla et al.

Summary: Voltammetric and Gouy-Chapman capacitance measurements were conducted on Au(111) and roughened Au(111) electrodes in aprotic electrolytes with and without specifically adsorbed ions at concentrations ranging from 0.001 to 0.5 M. The capacitance maximum increased in the order Ca2+ beyond the negative point of zero charge (pzc).

Hybrid density-potential functional theory of electric double layers

Jun Huang

Summary: This study presents a field theoretic derivation for the free energy of electrolyte solution, introducing a reference system to describe non-electrostatic interactions between charged particles. By combining classical and quantum mechanical parts, a hybrid density-potential functional for the electric double layer grand canonical potential is obtained. Numerical implementation demonstrates the model's effectiveness, particularly showing oscillating density of counterions near the metal surface when using the FMT for the reference system.
