Key Points

The study aims to explore how 2D nanoconfinement influences the solvation structure of ions, particularly hydroxide and hydronium.
Conducted experiments on ion-specific behavior in confined water
Analyzed dielectric and transport properties of water under confinement
Compared solvation structures of hydroxide and hydronium ions.
Observed significant distortion in the solvation structure of hydroxide ions
Found no noticeable change in the solvation structure of hydronium ions
Demonstrated implications for charge transport and selectivity in two-dimensional membranes.

Implication

This research investigates solvation structure changes in hydroxide and hydronium under nanoscale confinement, suggesting significant implications for charge transport.
