Abstract
The temperature dependences of the order parameter η(T) for sodium nitrite NaNO2 embedded in porous glasses with average pore diameters of 320 and 20 nm, as well as in artificial opals, have been investigated. It has been demonstrated that the dependence η(T) for sodium nitrite in the porous glass almost coincides with that for the bulk material, whereas this dependence for NaNO2 in opals differs substantially from that observed in the bulk material and from those previously determined for sodium nitrite in porous glasses with average pore diameters of 3 and 7 nm. It has been revealed that the dependence of the order parameter for sodium nitrite in opals exhibits a temperature hysteresis (approximately equal to 8 K). The temperature dependence η(T) has been described using a simple model, which takes into account the nanopore diameter distribution existing in artificial opals.
