How to speed up ion transport in nanopores

Narrowing pores filled with an electrolyte usually slows down their charge-discharge dynamics. Here the authors demonstrate through molecular dynamics simulations and experiments with novolac-derived carbon electrodes how non-linear voltage sweeps can accelerate charging and discharging of subnanome...
