Abstract
More anomalous transport behaviors have been observed with the rapid progress in nanofabrication technology and characterization tools. The ions/molecules inside nanochannels can act dramatically different from those in the bulk systems and exhibit novel mechanisms. Here, we have reported the fabrication of a nanodevice, covalent organic frameworks covered theta pipette (CTP), that combine the advantages of theta pipette (TP), nanochannels framework, and field-effect transistors (FETs) for controlling and modulating the anomalous transport. Our results show that ammonia, a weak base, causes a continuous supply of ions inside covalent organic framework (COF) nanochannels, leading to an abnormally high current depending on the ionic/molecular size and the pore size of the nanochannel. Furthermore, CTP can distinguish different concentrations of ammonia and have all of the qualities of a nanosensor.
