Under application of a voltage bias, asymmetric ion movement of an ionic liquid (IL) through a multilayered graphene (MLG) electrode has been detected by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, via recording the intensity of the two nitrogen peaks. Accordingly, we observe that upon increasing the bias, the two peaks representing the cationic and anionic fragments of the IL start appearing with increasing intensity, together with an asymmetry in their ratio, differing from unity by about 10%. Bias-dependent binding energy shifts followed through atomic features of the IL (F 1s, N 1s, and C 1s) and the graphene electrode (C 1s) indicate that a distinct solid–liquid interface develops throughout the entire intercalation process with an additional and pertinent evidence for finite potential drops across the two electrical double layers. This evidence is bolstered by the fact that the measured binding energy difference between the F 1s of the liquid and C 1s peak of the semisolid MLG electrode is only about half of ...
