TL;DR
This paper reports the observation of plasma-like negative capacitance in a nano-colloid at low frequencies, revealing a collective excitation and an unusual energy storage mechanism supported by experimental and modeling evidence.
Contribution
It introduces the discovery of plasma-like negative capacitance in nano-colloids and links it to a collective excitation, expanding understanding of nano-scale electrochemical phenomena.
Findings
Negative capacitance observed between 0.1 and 10^-5 Hz
Response is linear over broad conditions
Consistent with free-carrier plasma model
Abstract
A negative capacitance has been observed in a nano-colloid between 0.1 and 10^-5 Hz. The response is linear over a broad range of conditions. The low-omega dispersions of both the resistance and capacitance are consistent with the free-carrier plasma model, while the transient behavior demonstrates an unusual energy storage mechanism. A collective excitation, therefore, is suggested.
