Selective adsorption of Carbon Dioxide from Mixed Vapors by Blockage of Methane in Graphene Nanoribbons

Hind Aljaddani, Silvina M. Gatica

We study numerically the adsorption of a mixture of CO and CH on a graphite substrate covered by graphene nanoribbons (NRs). The NRs are flat and parallel to the graphite s…

Monolayer Adsorption of Noble Gases on Graphene

Sidi M. Maiga, Silvina M. Gatica

We report our results on the adsorption of noble gases such as argon, krypton and xenon on a graphene sheet, using Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations. We calculated the…

Capillary condensation in cylindrical nanopores

Silvina M. Gatica, Milton W. Cole

Using grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations, we have explored the phenomenon of capillary condensation (CC) of Ar at the triple temperature inside infinitely long, cylindrical po…

Thermodynamic properties and correlation functions of Ar films on the surface of a bundle of nanotubes

Nathan M. Urban, Silvina M. Gatica, Milton W. Cole +1

We employ canonical Monte Carlo simulations to explore the properties of an Ar film adsorbed on the external surface of a bundle of carbon nanotubes. The study is concerned primari…

Wetting transition of water on graphite and other surfaces

S. M. Gatica, J. K. Johnson, X. C. Zhao +1

A wetting transition occurs when the contact angle of a liquid drop on a surface changes from a nonzero value to zero. Such a transition has never been observed for water on any so…

Anomalous low temperature specific heat of He-3 inside nanotube bundles

S. M. Gatica, F. Ancilotto, M. W. Cole

Helium atoms and hydrogen molecules can be strongly bound inside interstitial channels within bundles of carbon nanotubes. An exploration of the low energy and low temperature prop…
