Meta‐Aerogel Ion Motor for Nanofluid Osmotic Energy Harvesting
Advanced Materials, 2023AbstractOsmotic power, also known as “blue energy”, is a vast, sustainable, and clean energy source that can be directly converted into electricity by nanofluidic membranes. However, the key technological bottleneck for large‐scale osmotic electricity is that macroscopic‐scale bulky membrane cannot synergistically satisfy the demands of high power ...

Artificial Sodium Channels for Enhanced Osmotic Energy Harvesting
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2023Inspired by the ion channels of electric eels, we can use biomimetic nanofluidic materials to harvest the osmotic power released by mixing seawater and river water. While biological ion channels have both cation/anion and inter-cation selectivity, previous nanofluidic materials neglected the latter.
