  • The importance of nanopore structures of carbons is shown in terms of interaction potential for various molecules including supercritical gases such as $H_2$ and $CH_4$. The key factors for adsorption of supercritical $H_2$ and $CH_4$ are shown for single wall carbon nanohorn, single wall carbon nanotube, and double wall carbon nanotube. The cluster formation of molecules is a key process for water adsorption on hydrophobic carbon nanopores. The X-ray absorption spectroscopic examination elucidates an explicit dehydration structure of ions confined in carbon nanopores.
