Effect of pore diameter distribution on water nanoconfinement in CNA. (a) CNAs with Gaussian distribution of pore width are systematically analyzed (μ∈ [0.8, 50]; σ∈ [0, 5]), and both the average scaling parameter $\bar{\theta }$ (i.e., the mean magnitude of water nanoconfinement in a CNA section) and (b) the overall self-diffusivity of entrapped water $D\left(\bar{\theta }\right)$ (Equation 7) are evaluated.
