Structure of the doped canopy in direction normal to the solid wall. (a) Density profile of the polymer beads near the charged solid wall and its contribution by polymers whose charged end monomer resides in different regions (Part A: z = 0–0.6 nm; Part B: z > 0.6 nm). (b) Density profiles of the charged end monomers, Na+, and Cl− ions. (c) Variation of the screening factor β near the charged solid wall. Inset shows the arrangement of polymer and electrolyte ions near the wall.
