Extreme Ion-transporting 2D membranes

Inorganic two-dimensional (2D) materials offer a new ap-proach to control mass diffusion at the nanoscale. Con-trolling ion transport in nanofluidics is key to energy con-version, energy storage, water purification, and numerous other applications wherein persistent challenges for effi-cient separation must be addressed. This special Issue aims to discuss the development of 2D membranes in the emerging field of energy harvesting, water desalina-tion, and proton/Li-ion production in the context of green energy and environmental technology. The issue includes the fundamental mechanisms, 2D membrane fabrication, and challenges toward practical applications. 

We will accept the submissions starting November 2023.
