Water and Ions at Nanoscopic Interfaces

Water and ions are ubiquitous at several nanoscopic interfaces regulating events ranging from the use of nanoporous graphene for water filtration and functionalized nanochannels for current rectification to controlling the electro-physiological responses of plasma membranes for ion signaling and cell apoptosis.
