[EN] We demonstrate a redox-sensitive nanofluidic diode whose ion rectification is modulated by the oxidation and reduction of chemical moieties incorporated on its surface. To achieve this goal, we have first synthesized ...
We have designed and characterized a cylindrical nanopore that exhibits high electrochemical
current rectification ratios at low and intermediate electrolyte concentrations. For this
purpose, the track-etched single ...

We describe the fabrication of a chemical-sensitive nanofluidic device based on asymmetric nanopores whose transport characteristics can be modulated upon exposure to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). We show experimentally and ...
[EN] We consider the screening of the negative charges (carboxylic acid groups) fixed on the surface of a conical-shaped track-etched nanopore by divalent magnesium (Mg2+) and trivalent lanthanum (La3+). The experimental ...
4-oxo-4-(pyren-4-ylmethoxy) butanoic acid is used as a photolabile protecting group to show the optical gating of nanofluidic devices based on synthetic ion channels. The inner surface of the channels is decorated with ...
[EN] We describe experimentally and theoretically the concentration-dependent conduction of tetraalkylammonium
(TAA+) cations through a nanofluidic diode fabricated in a polymer membrane via
asymmetric track-etching ...
