The ground-state exciton binding energy for single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in vacuum calculated ignoring the screening of Coulomb interaction appears to be much greater than the corresponding band gap. The most essential…
1D van der Waals heterostructures (1D vdWH) were recently reported to be successfully synthesized. We perform molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the buckling behavior of a 1D vdWH composed of inner carbon nanotube, a middle boron…
Heat conduction of a real quasi-one dimensional material, the finite length carbon nanowire (CNW), inserted into the single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) has been studied by the molecular dynamical (MD) method, in which both of the…
Single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) nanofibrils were assembled onto conductive atomic force microscopy (AFM) probes with the help of dielectrophoresis (DEP). This process involved the application of a 10 V, 2 MHz, AC bias between a…
Our group recently reproduced the water-assisted growth method, so-called "super growth", of millimeter-thick single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) forests by using C2H4/ H2/ H2O/ Ar reactant gas and Fe/ Al2O3 catalyst. In this current work,…
The continuous two-dimensional (2D) elastic model for single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) provided by Tu and Ou-Yang in [Phys. Rev. B \textbf{65}, 235411 (2003)] is reduced to a one-dimensional (1D) curvature elastic model strictly. This…

Elastic radial deformation of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) under hydrostatic pressure is investigated within the continuum elastic approximation. The thin-shell theory, with accurate elastic constants and interwall couplings, allows…
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…
The electrical characteristics of a carbon nanotube can be significantly modified by applying elastic strain. This study focuses on exploring this phenomenon in a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) using tight-binding transport…
Freely suspended metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) exhibit reduced current carrying ability compared to those lying on substrates, and striking negative differential conductance (NDC) at low electric fields. Theoretical analysis…

Self-assembled hierarchical solid surfaces are very interesting for wetting phenomena, as observed in a variety of natural and artificial surfaces. Here, we report single-walled (SWCNT) and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) thin films…
We find that negative charges on an armchair single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) can significantly enhance the migration of a carbon adatom on the external surfaces of SWCNTs, along the direction of the tube axis. Nanotube charging…
Topological Stone-Wales defect in carbon nanotubes plays a central role in plastic deformation, chemical functionalization, and superstructure formation. Here, we systematically investigate the formation kinetics of such defects within…
Results of the bond lengths for various chiralities of single-wall carbon carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) (armchair, zigzag and chiral) are obtained. We use modified helical and rotational symmetries to describe the structure of SWNTs and Tersoff…
