Graphene Can Be Stretched to Serve as a Tunable Ion Filter

Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have conducted simulations advocating that graphene, along with its many other beneficial properties, can be altered with special pores to serve as a tunable strainer or filter for ions (charged atoms) in a liquid.
