here through the integration of continuum mechanics, electromagnetism, and …

Distinct from the conventional view that nanopores are considered independent channels for
mass transport, recent study on the covalent organic framework (COF)-based monolayers …

Ion–surface interactions can alter the properties of nanopores and dictate nanofluidic
transport in engineered and biological systems central to the water–energy nexus. The ion …

The surface charge is a key concept in electrochemistry. Mathematically, the surface charge
is obtained from a spatial integration of the volume charge along a particular direction …

Porous electrodes are found in energy storage devices such as supercapacitors and
pseudocapacitors. However, the effect of electrode-pore-size distribution on their energy …

Ionic transport through a charged nanopore at low ion concentration is governed by the
surface conductance. Several experiments have reported various power-law relations …

Ion sieving at the angstrom scale has become one of the research foci in fields such as
nanofluidics and membrane separation over the last decade. Nanopores/channels have …
