Spin-dependent coherent quantum transport through carbon nanotubes (CNT) is studied theoretically within a tight-binding model and the Green's function partitioning technique. End-contacted metal/nanotube/metal systems are modelled and next…
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in their pristine form have high thermal conductivity whose further improvement has attracted a lot of interest. Some theoretical studies have suggested that the thermal conductivity of a $(10,10)$…
We investigate the geometry, stability, electronic structure and optical properties of C24H12 coronenes encapsulated in a single-wall (19,0) carbon nanotube. By an adequate combination of advanced electronic-structure techniques, involving…
The one-dimensional confinement of quasiparticles in individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs) leads to extremely anisotropic electronic and optical properties. In a macroscopic ensemble of randomly oriented CNTs, this anisotropy disappears…
Making full usage of bipolar transport in single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transistors could permit the development of two-in-one quantum devices with ultra-short channels. We report on clean $\sim$10 to 100 nm long suspended SWCNT…
Carbon nanotubes are of central importance for applications in nano-electronics thanks to their exceptional transport properties. They can be used as sensors, for example in biological applications, provided that they are functionalized to…
We performed studies of coherent electronic transport through a single walled carbon nanotube. In the calculations multiple scattering on the contacts and interference processes were taken into account. Conductance is a composition of…
Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) of sufficiently large diameter and a few layers self-collapse into flat ribbons at atmospheric pressure, forming bundles of stacked CNTs that maximize packing and thus CNT interaction. Their improved stress transfer…
We study the electron transport in metallic carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with realistic defects of different types. We focus on large CNTs with many defects in the mesoscopic range. In a recent paper we demonstrated that the electronic transport…
Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes are studied in the diffusive transport regime. The peak mobility is found to scale with the square of the nanotube diameter and inversely with temperature. The maximum conductance, corrected for…
Amorphous carbon nanotubes (a-CNT) with up to four walls and sizes ranging from 200 to 3200 atoms have been simulated, starting from initial random configurations and using the Gaussian Approximation Potential [Phys. Rev. B 95, 094203…
Graphene/carbon-nanotube (CNT) hybrid material can be useful in energy storage and nanoelectronic technologies. Here we address the CNT-oscillator encapsulated in a graphene-nanoribbon (GNR) trench as a novel design, and investigate its…
