Nanofluidic Osmotic Diodes: Theory and Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Osmosis describes the flow of water across semipermeable membranes powered by the chemical free energy extracted from salinity gradients. While osmosis can be expressed in simple terms via the van 't Hoff ideal gas formula for the osmotic pressure, it is a complex phenomenon taking its roots in...
