“…Figure 8. Under steady-state conditions, consequently, the large ionic flux of Cl – resulted in charge anisotropy, inducing a reverse electric potential across the active layer. , The induced electric field, conversely, accelerated the transport of monovalent cations (Li + , Na + , K + ) to preserve electroneutrality, coupling the two transport rates by electromigration, as illustrated in Figure C. This deduction corroborates with prior molecular dynamics simulations , and multi-ionic experiments. , However, the multivalent ions (Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ ) were inhibited by its lower partitioning rates, causing the ionic fluxes to be 1 order of magnitude lower than the monovalent ions.…”
