Abstract

We perform molecular-level two-dimensional Monte-Carlo simulations of adsorption/desorption processes in order to investigate the effects that surface geometric irregularity has on these processes. The degree of surface irregularity is gradually changed by taking various profiles, starting from a straight line and ending in a microporous line. We correlate geometry to the appearance of adsorption-desorption hysteresis and to the evolution of latent adsorption (trapped, unadsorbed molecules).
