The unwrapping event of ssDNA from the SWNT during the Watson-Crick base paring is investigated through electrical and optical methods, and binding energy calculations. While the ssDNA-metallic SWNT hybrid shows the p-type semiconducting…
Despite many theoretical schemes, the direct experimental observation of supramolecular control on band gap opening in single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) is still lacking. We report experimental and theoretical demonstration of metal to…
High intrinsic mobility and small, biologically-compatible size make single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in demand for the next generation of electronic devices. Further, the wide range of available bandgaps due to changes in diameter…
Possibility of a ferromagnetic semiconductor single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT), where ferromagnetism is due to coupling between doped magnetic impurity on a zigzag SWCNT and electrons spin, is investigate. We found, in the weak…
The topological phase transition is theoretically studied in a metallic single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) by applying a magnetic field $B$ parallel to the tube. The $\mathbb{Z}$ topological invariant, winding number, is changed…

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…
