The influence of local magnetic moment formation around three kinds of vacancies on the electron conduction through metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes is studied by use of the Landauer formalism within the coherent regime. The method is…

We have evaluated the energies required to twist carbon nanotubes (NTs), and investigated the effects of these distortions on their electronic structure and electrical properties. The computed distortion energies are high, indicating that…

We report conductance measurements on multiwall carbon nanotubes in a perpendicular magnetic field. A gate electrode with large capacitance is used to considerably vary the nanotube Fermi level. This enables us to search for signatures of…

Here we address a theoretical study on the behaviour of electronic states of heterojunctions and quantum dots based on carbon nanotubes under magnetic fields. Emphasis is put on the analysis of the local density of states, the conductance,…

We investigate the electron transport in multiply connected metallic carbon nanotubes within the Landauer-B\"{u}ttiker formalism. Quasibound states coupled to the incident $\pi^{*}$ states give rise to energy levels of different widths…

Magnetotransport measurements in large diameter multiwall carbon nanotubes (20-40 nm) demonstrate the competition of a magnetic-field dependent bandstructure and Altshuler-Aronov-Spivak oscillations. By means of an efficient capacitive…

The electron transport in a four-terminal nanodevice consisting of two crossed nanotubes is investigated in the framework of the Landauer-Buttiker formalism. The evident formula for the ballistic conductance of the device is found using a…

We address the electronic resonant transport in presence of a transverse magnetic field through the single level of a suspended carbon nanotube acting as a quantum oscillator. We predict a negative magneto-conductance with a magnetic-field…

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…

Atomistic simulations using a combination of classical forcefield and Density-Functional-Theory (DFT) show that carbon atoms remain essentially sp2 coordinated in either bent tubes or tubes pushed by an atomically sharp AFM tip. Subsequent…

An external magnetic field is found to have strong effects on the electronic structure of carbon nanotubes. A field-induced metal-insulator transition is predicted for all pure nanotubes. In a weak field, nanotubes exhibit both large…

The magnetoconductance of p-n junctions formed in clean single wall carbon nanotubes is studied in the noninteracting electron approximation and perturbatively in electron-electron interaction, in the geometry where a magnetic field is…

We have calculated the effects of structural distortions of armchair carbon nanotubes on their electrical transport properties. We found that the bending of the nanotubes decreases their transmission function in certain energy ranges and…

Disorder effects on the density of states and electronic conduction in metallic carbon nanotubes are analyzed by a tight binding model with Gaussian bond disorder. Metallic armchair and zigzag nanotubes are considered. We obtain a…

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…

We theoretically demonstrate that carbon nanoscrolls -- spirally wrapped graphene layers with open endpoints -- can be characterized by a large positive magnetoconductance. We show that when a carbon nanoscroll is subject to an axial…

In a recent paper Liang {\it et al.} [Nature {\bf 411}, 665 (2001)] showed experimentally, that metallic nanotubes, strongly coupled to external electrodes, may act as coherent molecular waveguides for electronic transport. The experimental…

We investigate the properties of conduction electrons in single-walled armchair carbon nanotubes (SWNT) in the presence of both transverse electric and magnetic fields. We find that these fields provide a controlled means of tuning…

The gap oscillations caused by a magnetic flux penetrating a carbon nanotube represent one of the most spectacular observation of the Aharonov-Bohm effect at the nano--scale. Our understanding of this effect is, however, based on the…

We calculated the effects of structural distortions on the electronic structure of carbon nanotubes. The key modification of the electronic structure brought about by bending a nanotube involves an increased mixing of $\sigma$ and…
