Abstract

Current flow through the membranes rectifying system in the
reverse direction depends mostly on the potential difference
bui1t up between the membranes. The change of the potentiaJ.
difference between membranes dulling the current flow in the
reverse direction is signdficantly greaiter than, and of the opposite
sign :flrom, that dill the forward direction. The current in the reverse
state is higher than expected because of imperfect experimental
conditions (impurities in the system) but it is still suff,iciently
small compru-ed to the current in -the forward state. Bes.ides, the
effect of rectiflicaition is Lower than expected becaruse of the
sluggishness of the system during the fast transition from the
forward into the reverse state.
