Authored explanation

The electrochemical double layer is an interfacial charge and solvation structure whose model depends on potential, composition, surface, and time scale.

How to interpret this relation type

A more specific theory, model, entity class, or regime is obtained by restricting or extending the scope of a broader framework.

Authored annotation: develops interfacial charge organization

Authored explanation

An electrode in contact with an electrolyte develops a potential- and composition-dependent double layer involving electronic charge, solvent orientation, diffuse ions, and possible specific adsorption.

How to interpret this relation type

The target represents a state, property, observable, or state-dependent description associated with the source system or theory.
