We propose an experimentally viable setup for the realization of one-dimensional ultracold atom gases in a nanoscale magnetic waveguide formed by single doubly-clamped suspended carbon nanotubes. We show that all common decoherence and atom…
The structural and electronic properties of aluminum covered single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) are studied from first-principles for a large number of coverage. Aluminum-aluminum interaction that is stronger than aluminum-tube…
We consider radially twisted nanotubes in the low-energy approximation where the dynamics is governed by a one-dimensional Dirac equation. The mechanical deformation of the nanotubes is reflected by the presence of an effective vector…
Carbon nanotubes are a good realization of one-dimensional crystals where basic science and potential nanodevice applications merge. Defects are known to modify the electrical resistance of carbon nanotubes. They can be present in as-grown…
The synthesis of one-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures was realized recently, which opens up new possibilities for prospective applications in electronics and optoelectronics. The even reduced dimension will enable novel properties…
We consider a 2-1 electrolyte in contact with a narrow nanotube, which only allows one-dimensional storage along the axis. The asymmetry does not allow an a priori definition of the potential of zero charge; instead, the natural reference…
The atomic and electronic structure of a set of pristine single wall SiC nanotubes as well as Si-substituted carbon nanotubes and a SiC sheet was studied by the LDA plane wave band structure calculations. Consecutive substitution of carbon…
For the first time, an approach is suggested for the quantitative description of the electronic structure of single-walled carbon nanotubes and the prediction of active sites for the tube controlled functionalization in view of the tube…
We consider electronic spectra of graphene nanotubes and their perturbation by impurity atoms absorbed at different positions on nanotube surfaces, within the framework of Anderson hybrid model. A special attention is given to the cases…
The role of irradiation induced defects and temperature in the conducting properties of single-walled (10,10) carbon nanotubes has been analyzed by means of a first-principles approach. We find that di-vacancies modify strongly the energy…
We have investigated the equilibrium states of ferromagnetic single wall nanotubes by means of atomistic Monte Carlo simulations of a zig-zag lattice of Heisenberg spins on the surface of a cylinder. The main focus of our study is to…
Single-wall carbon nanotubes are almost ideal systems for the investigation of exotic many-body effects due to non-Fermi liquid behavior of interacting electrons in one dimension. Recent theoretical and experimental results are reviewed…
Search for low-dimensional materials with unique electronic properties is important for the development of electronic devices in nano scale. Through systematic first-principles calculations, we found that the band gaps of the…
The van der Waals and Casimir interactions of a hydrogen atom (molecule) with a single-walled and a multiwalled carbon nanotubes are compared. It is shown that the macroscopic concept of graphite dielectric permittivity is already…
We investigate a disordered single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) in an effective medium super cell approximation (EMSCA). First type of disorder that we consider is the presence of vacancies. Our results show that the vacancies induce some…
While defects are generally considered to be unavoidable in experiments, engineering them is also a way of manipulating the physical properties of materials. In this study, the role of periodically arranged single vacancy defects in…
The chemisorption of atomic hydrogen on the single-walled armchair carbon nanotube is studied with ab initio calculations. A single H atom is found to be chemisorbed on both the inside and outside wall of the nanotube. The binding energy of…
A mechanically bistable single-walled carbon nanotube can act as a variable-shaped capacitor with a voltage-controlled transition between collapsed and inflated states. This external control parameter provides a means to tune the system so…
We present a detailed comparison between theoretical predictions on electron scattering processes in metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes with defects and experimental data obtained by scanning tunneling spectroscopy of Ar$^+$ irradiated…
The nanostructure of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a Si:H) is studied by a combination of small-angle X-ray (SAXS) and neutron scattering (SANS) with a spatial resolution of 0.8 nm. The a-Si:H materials were deposited using a range of…
