I am an undergraduate who recently started on a research project involving the dielectric properties of colloidal suspensions. Though my physics background is strong, my chemistry background is weak and I would like to learn about the following concepts relevant to my research:

1. Electrode polarization (ideal vs. non-ideal)
2. Electrode impedance
3. Induced polarization
4. Faradaic and non-Faradaic processes
5. Double layers (specifically Guoy-Chapman double layers)
7. Zeta potential

What are some good resources (texts, etc.) where I can learn about such things?

Thanks very much.

If you find a good book, let me know- I've been trying to find something like this for my students for several years. The best I have found (so far) are:
