“…Nanoconfined water is ubiquitous in a wide variety of fields from biology and chemistry to the chemical industry with significant attentions. − The advances in fabrication of low dimension materials, such as carbon nanotubes (CNT), , boron nitride nanotubes (BNNT), graphene, graphene oxide (GO), molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ), and hexagonal boron nitride ( h BN), offers the opportunity to investigate the properties of confined molecules/ions down to the nanometer or even angstrom scale. ,− , The physiochemical properties of nanoconfined water or other molecules are quite different from the bulk phase that showing charming performances. ,,− Highly efficient transport of water , and precise ion separation − through nanomaterial-based membrane have been reported recently, which hold high promise in the application of water desalination, ions/molecules separation, − energy conversion, , and so on. These unique and interesting properties are closely related to the distinct nanoconfined molecule/ion structures and interfacial property.…”
