Abstract
Nitrogen has been condensed into Vycor glass and three controlled pore glasses with pore diameters in the nm-range. Adsorption isotherms at 77K have been studied. The induced infrared activity of the N-N stretc hing vibration has been investigated as function of temperature and fi ling fraction. Molecules in the first monolayer next to the pore, wall s can be discriminated from those in the second monolayer, whereas mol ecules in the center of the poles remain infrared inactive.
