The stability of a single-walled carbon nanotube placed on top of a catalytic nickel nanoparticle is investigated by means of molecular dynamics simulations. As a case study, we consider the $(12,0)$ nanotube consisting of 720 carbon atoms…
We show that non-damped acoustic plasmons exist in single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and propose that the non-damped acoustic plasmons may mediate electron-electron attraction and result in superconductivity in the SWCNT. The…
In this work, a coarse-grained (CG) model of carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced polymer matrix composites is developed. A distinguishing feature of the CG model is the ability to capture interactions between polymer chains and nanotubes. The…
Semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are a promising material platform for near-infrared in-vivo imaging, optical sensing, and single-photon emission at telecommunication wavelengths. The functionalization of SWCNTs with…
The inclusion and encapsulation of terthiophene (T3) molecules inside zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is addressed by density functional calculations. We consider the T3 molecule inside five semiconducting CNTs with diameters…
Transistors made up of carbon nanotubes CNT have demonstrated excellent current-voltage characteristics which outperform some high-grade silicon-based transistors. A continuously tunable energy barrier across semiconductor interfaces is…
We present a resonance Raman study of the disorder-induced D mode in a sample highly enriched with semiconducting (9,7) single-walled carbon nanotubes in the excitation energy range of 1.49 - 2.05 eV. The intensity of the D mode shows a…
Recent nuclear magnetic resonance measurements on isotope engineered double walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) surprisingly suggest a uniformly metallic character of all nanotubes, which can only be explained by the interaction between the…
We demonstrate that a single zone furnace with a modified synthesis chamber design is sufficient to obtain metal (Fe, Co or Ni) filled carbon nanotubes (CNT) with high filling efficiency and controlled morphology. Samples are formed by…
Using the Green Bank 100 m telescope and the Nobeyama 45 m telescope, we have observed the rotational emission lines of the three 13C isotopic species of HC3N in the 3 and 7 mm bands toward the low-mass star-forming region L1527 in order to…
The self-assembly mechanism of one-end-open carbon nanotubes (CNTs) suspended in an aqueous solution was studied by molecular dynamics simulations. It was shown that two one-end-open CNTs with different diameters can coaxially self-assemble…
Using inhomogeneous Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalism we study superconducting properties of bundles of single wall carbon nanotubes, consisting of a mixture of metallic and semiconducting nanotubes, having different critical transition…
In this study, the synthesis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was carried out by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using propane as the carbon source and Si as the catalyst support. The effect of CVD process variables such as…
Telecommunications and polarimetry both require the active control of the polarization of light, Currently, this is done by combining intrinsically anisotropic materials with tunable isotropic materials into heterostructures using…
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…
The results from mass spectrometry of clusters sputtered from Cs+ irradiated single-walled carbon nano-tubes (SWCNTs) as a function of energy and dose identify the nature of the resulting damage in the form of multiple vacancy generation.…

Molecular level components, like carbon multiwalled nanotubes (MWNT), show great potential for future nanoelectronics. At low frequencies, only the outermost carbon layer determines the transport properties of the MWNT. Due to the…
A freestanding film of vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (VA-SWNTs) synthesized by the alcohol catalytic chemical vapor deposition (ACCVD) method was observed directly by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). These…
Molecular dynamics simulations have been used to investigate the structures of Lennard-Jones (LJ) nanowires (NWs) encapsulated by carbon nanotubes (CNTs). We found that, when the radius of CNTs is small, the structures of NWs are quite…
