| contents | Ionic transport within charged nanopores is commonly represented by resistor-capacitor transmission line circuits, where charging electrical double layers are modeled as capacitors, and the resistance to ionic current is modeled as resistors. However, these circuits fail to account for oscillations observed in experimental Nyquist plots of impedance, which are attributed ad hoc to effects such as complex porous structures or chemical reactions. Here, we show that diffusivity asymmetry between ions in confinement - overlooked in previous studies - produces Nyquist plots with two turns. Additionally, we demonstrate that ionic transport is more accurately described by magnetically coupled inductor-resistor circuits than by a simple resistor-capacitor circuit. Our results show that an impedance response of ionic transport in nanopores for arbitrary Debye lengths is better captured by two Warburg elements in parallel than a single Warburg element. |
