Phases of neon, xenon, and methane adsorbed on nanotube bundles
Phases of neon, xenon, and methane adsorbed on nanotube bundles
We explore the behavior of neon, xenon, and methane filmas adsorbed on the external surface of a bundle of carbon nanotubes. The methods used are classical: a ground state calculation, by grand potential energy minimization, and the grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) method of simulation. Our results are similar to …
