Abstract
We analyze selective ionic conduction through an artificial nanopore in a single graphene sheet, using molecular dynamics simulations and the prehistory probability distribution. We assess position-dependent changes in the number and orientation of water molecules in the first and second hydration shells of the ion as it crosses the nanopore. We reveal coupling between an ionic double layer near the sheet to the statistical properties of the hydration shells.
