Memristive switching of nanofluidic diodes by ionic concentration gradients
[EN] We demonstrate that nanofluidic diodes exhibit a memristive behavior that can be controlled not only by the amplitude and frequency of the driving oscillatory signal but also by changing the relative orientations of the externally imposed ionic concentration difference with respect to the pore...

| Sumario: | [EN] We demonstrate that nanofluidic diodes exhibit a memristive behavior that can be controlled not only by the amplitude and frequency of the driving oscillatory signal but also by changing the relative orientations of the externally imposed ionic concentration difference with respect to the pore charge density gradient. Because ionic concentration differences, memristive properties, and nanofluidic pores are of broad interest to electrochemical technology and membrane bioelectrochemistry, this study can be a useful contribution to the field. In our case, the memristor is a polymer membrane with current rectifying conical nanopores. The electrical interaction between the mobile ions in the aqueous solution and the pore surface charges leads to rich physico-chemical phenomena, including memory effects and the neuromorphic-like potentiation of the membrane conductance following voltage pulses (spikes). The multipore membrane can be used in the design of electrochemical circuits for signal conversion and information processing in iontronic hybrid devices |
