Diffuse-charge effects on the transient response of electrochemical cells

We present theoretical models for the time-dependent voltage of an electrochemical cell in response to a current step, including effects of diffuse charge (or "space charge") near the electrodes on Faradaic reaction kinetics. The full model is based on the classical Poisson-Nernst-Planck e...
