Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have aimed the development of integrated characterization method of nanopores by a combined study using a cryogenic temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) measurement of physisorbed He and molecular simulation. The measurement of TPD curve of weakly physisorbed He on porous solids was achieved by lowering the system temperature to 4 K so that the solid-He interaction potential became larger than the thermal energy of He atom. We have succeeded in reproducing adsorption behavior of mesoporous silicas (MCM-41 and SBA-15) by the molecular simulation using atomistic silica pore model with appropriate surface roughness, which was determined from the small angle X-ray scattering measurement. Moreover, by comparing adsorption energy distribution of the atomistic silica pore model and the experimental result from the cryogenic TPD measurement of physisorbed He, we have provided a guideline for developing of the rational method for determining the surface roughness.
