Ion 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 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...
متن کاملScan-rate-dependent ion current rectification and rectification inversion in charged conical nanopores.
Herein we report a theoretical study of diode-like behavior of negatively charged (e.g., glass or silica) nanopores at different potential scan rates (1-1000 V·s(-1)). Finite element simulations were used to determine current-voltage characteristics of conical nanopores at various electrolyte concentrations. This study demonstrates that significant changes in rectification behavior can be obser...
متن کاملRectification of Ion Current in Nanopores Depends on the Type of Monovalent Cations: Experiments and Modeling
Rectifying nanopores feature ion currents that are higher for voltages of one polarity compared to the currents recorded for corresponding voltages of the opposite polarity. Rectification of nanopores has been found to depend on the pore opening diameter and distribution of surface charges on the pore walls as well as pore geometry. Very little is known, however, on the dependence of ionic rect...
