Classical Density Functional Theory of Ionic Solutions

Forsman, Jan LU ; Woodward, Clifford and Szparaga, Ryan LU (2015) p.17-38
Abstract
The basic structure of classical density functional theory (DFT) is reviewed from a rather general perspective. The treatment is then specialized to ionic solutions, describing the various possible extensions beyond the Poisson–Boltzmann level, that DFT offers, such as excluded volume effects, non-electrostatic interactions, connectivity (polymers) and ion correlations. The last effects are discussed rather thoroughly, with several explicit illustrations.
