Ion Correlations at Electrified Soft Matter Interfaces presents an
investigation that combines experiments, theory, and computer
simulations to demonstrate that the interdependency between ion
correlations and other ion interactions in solution can explain the
distribution of ions near an electrified liquid/liquid interface.
The properties of this interface are exploited to vary the coupling
strength of ion-ion correlations from weak to strong while
monitoring their influence on ion distributions at the nanometer
scale with X-ray reflectivity and on the macroscopic scale with
interfacial tension measurements. This thesis demonstrates that a
parameter-free density functional theory that includes ion-ion
correlations and ion-solvent interactions is in agreement with the
data over the entire range of experimentally tunable correlation
coupling strengths. The reported findings represent a significant
advance towards understanding the nature and role of ion
correlations in charged soft-matter. Ion distributions underlie
many scientific phenomena and technological applications, including
electrostatic interactions between charged biomolecules and the
efficiency of energy storage devices. These distributions are
determined by interactions dictated by the chemical properties of
the ions and their environment, as well as the long-range nature of
the electrostatic force. The presence of strong correlations
between ions is responsible for counterintuitive effects such as
like-charge attraction.
