23. In general, a higher capacitance value is obtained when the polarization of ions at the interface is increased and/or the thickness of the EDL is reduced. As expected in a highly charged system such as ionic liquids both aspects play an important role in determining the eventual shape of the capacitance curve and its magnitude.

33. When an electrode is electrically polarized, the homogeneity of charge distribution at the surface of electrode is determined by its degree of polycrystallinity. In an ideal case of monocrystalline surface, a homogeneous surface charge distribution is attained.
