摘要
Ion current rectification(ICR)is a physical phenomenon caused by asymmetric transport of anions and cations across an ion nanopore/channel,in which the ion current at a voltage of one polarity is much higher or lower than the one of opposite voltage polarity.Since ICR was first observed in a nanopipette in 1997,extensive research has been performed using various nanopores/nanochannels,revealing the applicability of ICR in various fields including fluidic logic circuits(i.e.,iontronics),energy conversion and storage,
