We present our findings on the changes to electroosmotic flow outside glass nanopores with respect to the choice of Group 1 cation species. In contrast to standard electrokinetic theory, flow reversal was observed for all salts under a negative driving voltage. Moving down Group 1 resulted in weaker flow when the driving voltage was negative, in line with the reduction in the zeta potential on the glass surface going down the periodic table. No trend emerged with a positive driving voltage; however, for Cs, flow was uniquely found to be in reverse. These results are explained by the interplay between the flow inside the nanopore and flow along the outer walls in the vicinity of the nanopore.
