Fig. 1. Idealised sketch of the potential of zero charge of a heterogeneous electrode.
Shown are linearised charging curves per total surface area for support and nano-particle as a function of potential; the overall pzc is defined by equal but opposite charges on support (line AC) and nano-particle (line BC).
