Modeling the camel-to-bell shape transition of the differential capacitance using mean-field theory and Monte Carlo simulations

. Mean-field electrostatics is used to calculate the differential capacitance of an electric double layer formed at a planar electrode in a symmetric 1:1 electrolyte. Assuming the electrolyte is also ion-size symmetric, we derive analytic expressions for the differential capacitance valid up to four...
