Abstract

Randomly intercalated layered alloys are excellent models for two-dimensional microporous systems. We have studied the nonlinear gallery expansion and the gallery height fluctuations by constructing a double layer model that describes the layer rigidity and the size and stiffness of the intercalant species. Exact solutions, simulations and an effective-medium theory (EMT) results are compared. Applications of the results to ternary intercalation compounds are discussed.
