Funded Activity Summary

Self-gating nanochannels for nanofluidic applications. This project aims to develop a platform strategy to fabricate self-gating nanochannels that undergo autonomous opening-closing changes without any on-off switching of external stimuli. These nanochannels mimic the unique structures and smart functions of biological protein channels, and thus are expected to improve smart membrane separation, energy conversion, biosensing, and nanofluidic devices. This research could improve biomimetic design of nanochannels and directly benefit the Australian manufacturing industry.
