Abstract

As models for substances adsorbed within amorphous solid matrices, we consider mixtures of spheres with either hard or ideal interactions where several (matrix) components are quenched and the remaining (adsorbate) components are equilibrated. We propose a density-functional theory, based on the exact zero-dimensional limit, which treats both matrix and adsorbate components on the level of the respective one-body density profiles. As a test, we calculate pair correlation functions for hard spheres adsorbed in either a hard sphere or an ideal sphere matrix, and find good agreement with our computer simulation results.
