Adsorption in nanopores with finite pore walls from truncated graphene
Published 2011“…We show that the contribution of edges to the total adsorption is not negligible: in smallest pores, with the diameters comparable with the pore width, the edge contribu-tion can be even equally or more important than that of the pore inside. We discuss and compare Monte Carlo simulations and DFT approach in similar pore geometries…”
