摘要
The low temperature properties of matter confined in an array of narrow one-dimensional channels are discussed. Weak interchannel interactions can stabilize a crystalline phase. The melting transition is expected to be continuous for both two- and three-dimensional arrays. Possible experimental realizations are suggested. Crystals of noble gas series elements confined inside 1 nm wide nanotube arrays are expected to be stable at temperatures up to 1 K.
