Which instability arises when electrostatic repulsion dominates adhesion?

💡 Explanation

Surface blistering from electrostatic repulsion occurs due to the Plateau-Rayleigh instability, because repulsive forces overcome surface tension forming bulges. Therefore, blistering is the result rather than electromigration, and non-ideal effects appear on the electrode rather than changes to fundamental capacitance.
