Abstract

An “electromechanical” model of the electric double layer, whose “plates” are displaced on charging, is proposed; it is shown for the example of this model that the differential capacitance can diverge and become negative. The reasons why these anomalies were not predicted in the well-known models of the double layer are examined.
