Abstract “How can we measure interface phenomena on the microscopic level” is a fundamental question that has
been with us for many years and is also listed in recent Science 125 question. It is even harder to explore
the electrified interface. In this work, we report atomic-force-microscope measurements of interfacial
dynamics of an electrified room-temperature ionic liquid (RTIL)-solid interface. RTILs are intriguing fluids
that have drawn much attention in applications ranging from tribology and catalysis to energy storage. With
strong electrostatic interaction between ions, their interfacial behaviors can be modulated by controlling
energetics of the electrified interface. Using a unique long-needle… More >
