Recent studies have shown the possibility of water transport across carbon nanotubes, even in the case of nanotubes with small diameter (0.822 nm). In this case, water shows subcontinuum transport following an ordered 1D structure…
State-of-the-art carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNFETs) behave as Schottky barrier (SB)-modulated transistors. It is known that vertical scaling of the gate oxide significantly improves the performance of these devices. However,…
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a promising material for high-performance electronics beyond silicon. But unlike silicon, the nature of the transport band gap in CNTs is not fully understood. The transport gap in CNTs is predicted to be…

We have studied the electronic structure and charge-carrier dynamics of individual single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and nanotube ropes using optical and electron-spectroscopic techniques. The electronic structure of semiconducting SWNTs…
We report the observation of Coulomb blockade in field electron emission (FE) from single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), which is manifested as pronounced steps in the FE current-voltage curves and oscillatory variations in the energy…
We develop an effective tight-binding Hamiltonian for spin-orbit (SO) interaction in bent carbon nanotubes (CNT) for the electrons forming the $\pi$ bonds between the nearest neighbor atoms. We account for the bend of the CNT and the…

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have many interesting properties; they may be metallic or semiconducting depending on their diameter and helicity of the graphene sheet. Hydrostatic or quasi-hydrostatic high pressures can probe many…
Light emission from nanostructures exhibits rich quantum effects and has broad applications. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are one-dimensional (1D) metals or semiconductors, in which large number of electronic states in a narrow…
