In this work the thermodynamics of the electrodeposition on nanoholes is analyzed. Different lattice-gas models of nanoholes, from parallelepiped geometry to the empty bulk of a nanoparticle, were considered. The models include curvature on the inner walls. Several stages of deposition are identified. Monte Carlo technique in the Grand Canonical Ensemble is used to determine isotherms, isosteric heat, energy per site, etc. The study is based on different ranges of energies and nanoholes sizes.
