pH-Dependent Effects in Nanofluidic Memristors

[EN] Multipore membranes with nanofluidic diodes show memristive and current rectifying effects that can be controlled by the nanostructure asymmetry and ionic solution characteristics in addition to the frequency and amplitude of the electrical driving signal. Here, we show that the electrical conduction phenomena, which are modulated by the interaction between the pore surface charges and the solution mobile ions, allow for a pH-dependent neuromorphic-like potentiation of the membrane conductance by voltage pulses. Also, we demonstrate that arrangements of memristors can be employed in the design of electrochemical circuits for implementing logic functions and information processing in iontronics.
