Charge transport in 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ionic liquid in oxidized nanoporous silicon membranes - prepared by electrochemical etching of (100) p-type silicon- is investigated in a wide frequency and temperature range by a combination of broadband dielectric spectroscopy and pulsed field gradient nuclear magnetic resonance (PFG NMR). By applying the Einstein-Smoluchowski relation to the dielectric spectra, diffusion coefficient is obtained in quantitative agreement with independent PFG NMR measurements. More than 10-fold systematic decrease in the diffusion coefficient from the bulk value is observed in silica nanopores. This is explained within the framework of a model taking into account decreased mobility at the interface of the pore and the nanoporous membrane due to the ability of the hydrogen-bonded ionic liquid to attach to SiO2 surfaces. By that, it becomes possible to probe the size of the adsorption layer and its temperature dependence. This has direct technological implications to the use of ionic liquids in fuel cells and nanobatteries.
