We present local and non-local electron transport measurements on individual multi-wall nanotubes for bias voltage between 0 and about 4 V. Local current-voltage characteristics are quite linear. In contrast, non-local measurements are…

We investigate the aspects of the electron transport in the zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs) using the non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism. The latter is an esoteric tool in mesoscopic physics and using this tool the…
