Cover Story: A capacitance model based on the asymmetrical V-curve of the capacitance evolution with respect to the voltage in a LiC is developed. It depends on the formation of the electrical double layer at the positive electrode. The fundamental model of Stern is modified in order to account for the different sizes of anions and cations in a LiC. View this paper.
