“…In order to go further, we now combine the ideas of the QD models [8,13] with the Eisenman-inspired model of barrier-less selectivity [2,5,7] and, in particular, with the enhanced ICB model [17,23,24]. In the picture proposed, the difference in ∆U DH is not enough per se to determine which species will be selected over the other as this choice could be changed or even inverted by the value of Q f needed to provide barrier-less conduction, i.e.…”
