  • Description: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Capacitive analogues of semiconductor diodes (CAPodes) present a new avenue for energy‐efficient and nature‐inspired next‐generation computing devices. Here, we disclose the generalized concept for bias‐direction‐adjustable n‐ and p‐CAPodes based on selective ion sieving. Controllable‐unidirectional ion flux is realized by blocking electrolyte ions from entering sub‐nanometer pores. The resulting CAPodes exhibit charge‐storage characteristics with a high rectification ratio (96.29 %). The enhancement of capacitance is attributed to the high surface area and porosity of an omnisorbing carbon as counter electrode. Furthermore, we demonstrate the use of an integrated device in a logic gate circuit architecture to implement logic operations (‘OR’, ‘AND’). This work demonstrates CAPodes as a generalized concept to achieve p‐n and n‐p analogue junctions based on selective ion electrosorption, provides a comprehensive understanding and highlights applications of ion‐based diodes in ionologic architectures.</jats:p>
