Direct measurements of ionic liquid layering at a single mica-liquid interface and in nano-films between two mica-liquid interfaces.

The layering of ionic liquids close to flat, charged interfaces has been identified previously through theoretical and some experimental measurements. Here we present evidence for oscillations in ion density (‘layering’) in a long chain ionic liquid (1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanes...
