Biomimetic high-flux proton pump constructed with asymmetric polymeric carbon nitride membrane
Biological proton pumps ferry protons in an active manner and have a high flux (a few to 10 protons/(s·nm2)). Integrating these features in an artificial membrane may open the way for a wide range of applications...
