AB  - We present a theoretical study of argon adsorption on a model aluminium substrate structured with cylindrical nanopores. We employ state-of-the-art computational methods to obtain (i) accurate three-dimensional adsorption potentials for the nanostructured substrate starting from the corresponding ab initio physisorption potential for a planar surface, and (ii) the adsorption and desorption isotherms by means of Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations. We study the effect of pore shapes upon argon adsorption in the case of a substrate characterized by a periodic arrangement of identical cylindrical nano-pores, open at both ends or with one end closed. We find the occurrence of hysteresis loops between adsorption and desorption cycles in open-end pores, in accordance to recent experiments and to previous theoretical approaches. At variance with the prediction of the empirical Cohan law, we also find hysteresis in pores with one closed end.

AB  - We have studied, using grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations, the adsorption of Ar at 85 and 128 K inside nanoscopic open channels of different cross-section shapes on an Al surface. We studied, in particular, the filling phenomenology in linear channels whose cross sections are shaped like a cusp, wedge, parabola, and square well. The influence of the channel geometry on the adsorption behavior is analyzed by computing the adsorption isotherms. Different growth regimes are found as the adsorption proceeds, which are compared with existing model calculations and experimental data. Our simulations show, in particular, the occurrence, in square-well channels, of a nanoscale version of the so-called "Moses transition," in agreement with the predictions of model calculations and with recent experimental results.
