The electrostatic interaction energy for a charged sphere interacting with a low dielectric charged planar surface in an electrolyte solution is calculated. The calculations are based on a solution of the linearized Poisson–Boltzmann equation under the condition of constant charge density on both surfaces. The influence of sphere size, its dielectric constant, and net charge as well as planar surface...
