Charge transfer as a ubiquitous mechanism in determining the negative charge at hydrophobic interfaces

The accumulation of negative charge at hydrophobic–water interfaces has been a source of debate for a long time. Here the authors use ab initio calculations to show that the charge accumulation at air–water and oil–water interfaces is caused by subtle charge transfer processes.
