The transmembrane potential across a charged nanochannel subjected to asymmetric electrolytes
Ramadan Abu-Rjal, Yoav Green
The transmembrane voltage, , which is the potential drop required to nullify the electrical current (), is a key characteristic of water desalination and energy harvesting…
Towards a unified mechanistic understanding of the electrical response of bipolar nanofluidic systems
Ayelet Ben-Kish Sharvit, Yoav Green
Bipolar nanoporous membranes and bipolar nanochannels are used in water desalination and energy-harvesting systems that provide clean water and green energy, respectively. The grow…
Electrical Response of Nanofluidic Systems Subjected to Viscosity Gradients
Ramadan Abu-Rjal, Zuzanna S. Siwy, Yoav Green
It is expected that the introduction of a viscosity gradient across a nanofluidic system will drastically vary its current-voltage response, . However, to date, there is no se…
Bipolar nanochannels: The effects of an electro-osmotic instability. Part II: Time-transient response
Ramadan Abu-Rjal, Yoav Green
The most common method to characterize the electrical response of a nanofluidic system is through its steady-state current-voltage response. In Part I, we demonstrated that this cu…
Bipolar nanochannels: The effects of an electro-osmotic instability. Part I: Steady-state response
Ramadan Abu-Rjal, Yoav Green
The steady-state current-voltage response of ion-selective systems varies as the number of ion-selective components is varied. For the highly investigated unipolar system, includin…
