Enhanced Ion Current Rectification in 2D Graphene‐Based Nanofluidic Devices
Furthering the promise of graphene-based planar nanofluidic devices as flexible, robust, low cost, and facile large-scale alternatives to conventional nanochannels for ion transport, we show how the nonlinear current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and ion current rectification in these platforms can be enhanced by increasing the system asymmetry. Asymmetric cuts made to the 2D multilayered graph...
متن کاملIon Current Rectification, Limiting and Overlimiting Conductances in Nanopores
Previous reports on Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) simulations of solid-state nanopores have focused on steady state behaviour under simplified boundary conditions. These are Neumann boundary conditions for the voltage at the pore walls, and in some cases also Donnan equilibrium boundary conditions for concentrations and voltages at both entrances of the nanopore. In this paper, we report time-dep...
متن کاملIon Current Rectification and Rectification Inversion in Conical Nanopores: A Perm-selective View Electronic Supplementary Information
proving the validity of the present numerical approach. The results were also compared to the FEM simulations made by White et al. The ion current rectification in the pore of 10 μm length and half-cone angle of 12°, filled with 1 mM KCl solution was simulated. In this case the rectification ratio r(E) 35 is 1.39, while White et al report 1.38. The tiny difference in the obtained result is prob...
متن کاملMulti-ion versus single-ion conduction mechanisms can yield current rectification in biological ion channels.
There is clear evidence that the net magnitude of negative charge at the intracellular end of inwardly rectifying potassium channels helps to generate an asymmetry in the magnitude of the current that will pass in each direction. However, a complete understanding of the physical mechanism that links these charges to current rectification has yet to be obtained. Using Brownian dynamics, we compa...
متن کاملIon current rectification and rectification inversion in conical nanopores: a perm-selective view.
Ionic transport in charged conical nanopores is known to give rise to ion current rectification. The present study shows that the rectification direction can be inverted when using electrolyte solutions at very low ionic strengths. To elucidate these phenomena, electroneutral conical nanopores containing a perm-selective region at the tip have been investigated and shown to behave like classica...
