TABLE I.

Electrical properties of the NLGE and the substrate.

Initial glass wall Conductive NLGE tip Nanochannel
Thickness[m] 1000±50×10−9 180±50×10−9
Potential [V] 10 6.5 (turn-on) 3.5
Conductivity [S/m] ~10−14 ~0.05 1.01
Resistance [Ω] ~1012 356×106 187×106

This is the averaged conductivity of the NLGE tip, which varies according to the radial position (see Supplementary 5.3). The low field conductivity of glass is from ref. 28.
