Using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) produced by chemical vapor deposition, we have explored different strategies for the preparation of carbon nanotube devices suited for electrical and mechanical measurements. Though the target device is a…
Renormalization of quasiparticles and excitons in carbon nanotubes (CNTs) near a metallic surface has been studied within a many-body formalism using an embedding approach newly implemented in the GW and Bethe-Salpeter methods. The…
We systematically investigate the relationships between structural and electronic effects of finite size zigzag or armchair carbon nanotubes of various diameters and lengths, starting from a molecular template of varying shape and diameter,…
Elemental phosphorus nanostructures are notorious for a large number of allotropes, which limits their usefulness as semiconductors. To limit this structural diversity, we synthesize selectively quasi-1D phosphorus nanostructures inside…
The current study presents the natural vibrations of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) using the nonlocal theory of elasticity. The study will help to develop nanodevices. The study focuses on the natural vibrations of curved or…
The non homogeneity of the charge distribution in a carbon nanotube leads to the formation of an excitonic resonance, in a similar way to the one observed in X-ray absorption in metals. As a result, a positive anomaly at low bias appears in…
This paper is the first one of a series of two articles in which we revisit the optical properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT). Produced by rolling up a graphene sheet, SWNT owe their intriguing properties to their cylindrical…
Carbon Nanotubes have shown to be an attractive option in the race to find a replacement to silicon-based transistors, due to its high electrical conductivity, extraordinary mechanical strength, and thermal conductivity. However, challenges…
The unique topology and exceptional properties of carbon nanoscrolls (CNSs) have inspired unconventional nano-device concepts, yet the fabrication of CNSs remains rather challenging. Using molecular dynamics simulations, we demonstrate the…
Carbon nanorings are hoop-shaped, {\pi}-conjugated macrocycles which form the fundamental annular segments of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). In a very recent report, the structures of chiral carbon nanorings (which may serve as…
The universal features of quantized thermal conductance of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are revealed through theoretical analysis based on the Landauer theory of heat transport. The phonon-derived thermal conductance of semiconducting CNTs…
Using the Feynman path-integral formalism we study the polaron effects in quantum wires above a liquid helium film. The electron interacts with two-dimensional (2D) surface phonons, i.e. ripplons, and is confined in one dimension (1D) by an…
Random networks of single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) usually contain both metallic (m-CNTs) and semiconducting (s-CNTs) nanotubes with an approximate ratio of 1:2, which leads to a trade-off between on-conductance and on/off ratio. We…
Carbon nanotubes play a fundamental role in the rapidly developing field of nanoscience and nanotechnology because of their unique properties and high potential applictions. In this article, the different synthesis method of CNTs are…
We study interactions of extremely short three-dimensional bipolar electromagnetic pulses propagating towards each other in an array of semiconductor carbon nanotubes, along any direction perpendicular to their axes. The analysis provides a…
We report results on superconducting tunneling spectroscopy of a carbon nanotube quantum dot. Using a three-probe technique that includes a superconducting tunnel probe, we map out changes in conductance due to band structure, excited…
Carbon nanotubes (CNT) have a very large application potential in the rapid developing field of molecular electronics. Infinite single-wall metallic CNTs have theoretically a conductance of 4e2/h because of the two electronic bands crossing…
We have assigned the chirality of the internal tubes of double walled carbon nanotubes grown by catalytic chemical vapor deposition using the high sensitivity of the radial breathing mode (RB) in inelastic light scattering experiments. The…
Fifty years ago Walter Kohn speculated that a zero-gap semiconductor might be unstable against the spontaneous generation of excitons---electron-hole pairs bound together by Coulomb attraction. The reconstructed ground state would then open…
Macroscopic ensembles of nanocarbons, such as fibres of carbon nanotubes (CNT), are characterised by a complex hierarchical structure combining coherent crystalline regions with a large porosity arising from imperfect packing of the large…
