| Popis: | We introduce the potential of monolayer charge (PMC) as a new milepost in electrical double-layer (EDL) studies. We have estimated the PMC values for interfaces of Au(111) and a set of frisbee-shaped polycyclic heteroaromatic hydrocarbon ions using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The results suggest that increasing the ions area allows the formation of ionic monolayers at experimentally achievable potentials. We provide an analytical expression between ion area, surface--ion distance, ionic charge, and the corresponding PMC value to guide the experimental verification. Further computational and experimental investigations of the PMC as the reference potential will contribute to developing fundamental electrochemistry and establishing interfacial electrophysics.
