I have a question on the physical meaning of electrostatic difference potential.
I found other expression like electrostatic potential difference or electrostatic potential drop. Do they have the same meaning?
BTW, what is the relationship between electrostatic difference potential and rectification performance?
As far as I can see, the electrostatic potential will linear drop without no rectification, and electrostatic difference potential is constant. However, on the interface, the electrostatic potential will change nonlinearly, and electrostatic difference potential will also change significantly. Moreover, the region with high electrostatic difference potential value actually play a important role in rectification performance, such as molecular diode.
Thanks!
