Using molecular dynamics simulations of water, the author shows that
the self difussion follows the classical Fick's law, even when the pore
diameter is as small as 1.5-3.0 nm, which might be the case, e.g., in a
carbon nanotube. Which means one less thing you have to retrain your
engineers about when you decide to construct nano-fluidic devices.
