We report here analytic solutions for weak ion acoustic double layers in an unmagnetized multi‐species plasma having two electron components, each described by a Boltzmann distribution, and two ions of different masses, each described by usual fluid equations. The velocity and the width of the double layers for different amplitude has been studied.
