Biomimetic Approach for Ion Channels Based on Surfactant Encapsulated Spherical Porous Metal‐Oxide Capsules

Distinguished hybrid clusters with hydrophilic and hydrophobic interiors embedded within cationic surfactant shells are spontaneously inserted into lipid bilayers, showing well-defined ionic conductance behaviors. The transport via the narrow pore gates acting as selectivity filters is controlled by the dehydration energy of the cations.
