Nanoionics

Nanoionics

It is the branch of nanotechnology. Diffusion and reactions at nanoscale, nanostructures materials and nanodevices with fast ion transport are generally referred to nanoionics.

Nanoionics mainly deals with the study and application of phenomena, properties, effects and mechanisms of processes connected with fast ion transport in all-solid-state nanoscale systems.

Two fundamentally different nanoionics are nanosystems based on solids with low ionic conductivity and nanosystems based on advanced superionic conductors (alpha–AgI, rubidium silver iodide–family, etc.).
