Summary: | The screening of the electrical potential at a charged solid surface in a molten salt has been investigated in a computer simulation study. The relaxation time associated with the screening is found to be very short, and not dependent on diffusion. Despite pronounced oscillatory structure in the charge density, the structure and dynamics of the ions close to the interface are very similar to those in the bulk. |
