Electron field emission characteristics of individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes have been investigated by a piezoelectric nanomanipulation system operating inside a scanning electron microscopy chamber. The experimental setup ensures a…
Field electron emission (FE) from a structure-defined single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) was observed experimentally. A series of observations of the same SWNT by scanning electron microscopy, field emission microscopy and transmission…
The simulation of field electron emission from arrays of micrometer-long open-ended (5, 5) carbon nanotubes is performed in the framework of quantum theory of many electrons. It is found that the applied external field is strongly screened…
The field emission properties of ion irradiated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and doublewalled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) have been studied. The carbon nanotubes synthesized by a chemical vapor deposition method were irradiated by…
In this work, we quantify field emission properties of cathodes made from carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers. The cathodes were arranged in different configurations to determine the effect of cathode geometry on the emission properties. Various…
A 1 $\mu$m long, field emitting, (5,5) single-walled, carbon nanotube (SWCNT) closed with a fullerene cap, and a similar open nanotube with hydrogen-atom termination, have been simulated using the MNDO (Modified Neglect of Diatomic Overlap)…
Owing to their distinct properties, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have emerged as promising candidate for field emission devices. It has been found experimentally that the results related to the field emission performance show variability. The…
Carbon nanotubes have been observed to emit ultraviolet, visible, and infrared radiation when exposed to microwave fields. We have performed experiments in which both single-walled (~1 nm diameters) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (>50 nm…
The electron field emission of patterned films of nitrogenated carbon nanotubes is shown to be decisively influenced by the deposition conditions. The growth was carried out by decomposing methane in a nitrogen/ammonia atmosphere using hot…
A simple method to disperse individual single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT ) on an atomically flat substrate is presented. Proper tuning of ac modes of atomic force microscopes(AFM) is discussed. This is needed to discriminate between…
In many field electron emission experiments on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), the SWCNT stands on one of two well-separated parallel plane plates, with a macroscopic field FM applied between them. For any given location "L" on the…
We present a novel floating catalyst synthesis route for individual, i.e. non-bundled, small diameter single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with a narrow chiral angle distribution peaking at high chiralities near the armchair species. An…
The length of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is an important metric for the integration of SWCNTs into devices and for the performance of SWCNT-based electronic or optoelectronic applications. In this work we propose a rather…
The recent development of efficient chirality sorting techniques has opened the way to the use of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in a plethora of nanoelectronic, photovoltaic, and optoelectronic applications. However, to understand…
A simple method to calculate the static electric polarization of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) is obtained within the second-order perturbation approximation. The results are in agreement with the previous calculation within the…
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are potential materials for future nanoelectronics. Since the electronic and optical properties of SWNTs strongly depend on tube diameter and chirality, obtaining SWNTs with narrow (n,m) chirality…
Multiwalled carbon nanotubes have been produced by ethylene catalytic chemical vapor deposition and used to fabricate thick and dense freestanding films ("buckypapers") by membrane filtering. Field emission properties of buckypapers have…
The extraordinary one-dimensional properties of carbon nanotubes have captivated scientists and engineers since their discovery in the early 1990s. In particular, semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are highly promising for…
Scanning tunneling images of carbon nanotubes frequently show electron distributions which break the local sixfold symmetry of the graphene sheet. We present a theory of these images which relates these anisotropies to the off diagonal…
Physisorption studies and transmission electron microscopy have been used to characterise multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) made by a template-synthesis technique. Microscopic investigations revealed formation of 'branched nanotubes'…
