How Far Do Membrane Potentials Extend in Space Beyond the Membrane Itself?

The dynamic Nernst-Planck-Poisson equations are used to describe a model system in which an infinitesimal partially permeable membrane separates two different ionic solutions which extend freely in either direction. The spatial extent of the resulting potential difference is assessed, and we demonst...
