Specific adsorption: Molecular dynamics simulations of the imidazolium‐based ionic liquid/graphite electrode interface illustrate the effects of specific adsorption of the imidazolium cation on both differential capacitance and electric double‐layer structure due to the π‐stacking interaction between the imidazolium cation and the graphite surface.
