Cartoon illustrates the comparison of planar (low-aspect-ratio) nanochannel system (a) and (high-aspect-ratio) vertical nanochannel system (b). They both have the same critical dimension (depth for planar channels and width for vertical channels) but the open volume of vertical channels can be more than ten times or even a hundred times larger than planar channels.
