Three kinds of the response mechanisms to the external pressure have been found for double-walled carbon nanotube (DWNT) bundle, depending strongly on their average radius and symmetry. The small-diameter DWNT bundle undergoes a small…

We demonstrate a high electron conductivity (> 10^2 S/cm and up to 10^3 S/cm) of tungsten suboxide W18O(52.4-52.9)(or equivalently WO(2.91-2.94)) nanotubes (2 to 3 nm in diameter, ca. micrometer long). The conductivity is measured in the…

Dielectric properties of carbon nanotubes (CNT) are calculated with taking into account the deviation of carbon valence electrons from to be placed exactly on the CNT surface. The results show difference to the usually applied 2D electron…
