    • 2015, Alpha A Lee, Dominic Vella, Alain Goriely, Svyatoslav Kondrat, “The Capacitance-Power-Hysteresis Trilemma in Nanoporous Supercapacitors”, in arXiv‎[1]:
      We show via an analytical theory and Monte Carlo simulations that charging is sensitively dependent on the affinity of ions to the pores, and that the capacitance of ionophobic pores can be optimized at pore widths significantly larger than the ion diameter.
