On the origin of capacitance dispersion of rough electrodes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The interfacial impedance of polycrystalline solid electrodes in the absence of Faradaic reactions is never purely capacitive; the deviation from ideal capacitive behaviour is usually larger on rough electrodes than on smooth ones. We present qualitative experiments to demonstrate that the frequency dependence of capacitance on solid electrodes is due to the atomic scale inhomogeneities rather than to the geometry aspect of roughness. © 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Double-layer capacitance on a rough metal surface.
The properties of the double layer capacity on rough electrodes are discussed in terms of the recently developed linear Poisson-Boltzmann theory [L. I. Daikhin, A. A. Kornyshev, M. Urbakh, Phys. Rev. E 53, 6192 (1996)]. This theory offers a concept of a “Debye-length K dependent roughness factor”, ie roughness function, which determines the deviation of capacitance from the Gouy-Chapman result ...
متن کاملThe Origin of Improved Electrical Double-Layer Capacitance by Inclusion of Topological Defects and Dopants in Graphene for Supercapacitors.
Low-energy density has long been the major limitation to the application of supercapacitors. Introducing topological defects and dopants in carbon-based electrodes in a supercapacitor improves the performance by maximizing the gravimetric capacitance per mass of the electrode. However, the main mechanisms governing this capacitance improvement are still unclear. We fabricated planar electrodes ...

In this study, quantum capacitance of graphene-based electrodes is evaluated using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. The obtained results showed that quantum capacitance of graphene-based supercapacitors could be significantly improved by existence of structural defects on the graphene sheets at sufficiently high concentrations because of creating impure states resulted from carbon ...

The supercapacitive behavior of polyaniline/MnO2-carbon black (PANI/MnO2-CB), MnO2-CB nanocompositesand CB was studied. MnO2-CB made by the in situ direct coating method to deposit MnO2 onto CB; then PANI coating was coated on it. Morphology of the nanocomposite was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform...
