We propose the model of a manifold of one-dimensional interacting electron systems to account for the superconductivity observed in ropes of nanotubes. We rely on the strong suppression of single-particle hopping between neighboring…

A microscopic approach is developed to account for the magnitudes of the supercurrents observed experimentally in carbon nanotubes placed between superconducting contacts. We build up a model for the nanotube ropes encompassing the electron…

The superconducting properties of carbon nanotube ropes are studied using a new computational framework that incorporates the renormalization of intratube interactions and the effect of intertube Coulomb screening. This method allows to…

Recent experimental and theoretical results on intrinsic superconductivity in ropes of single-wall carbon nanotubes are reviewed and compared. We find strong experimental evidence for superconductivity when the distance between the normal…

The electronic structures of zig-zag and arm-chair single-walled carbon nanotubes interacting with a transitional-metal atomic nanowire of Ni have been determined. The Ni nanowire creates a large electron density of states (DOS)at the Fermi…

We derive and analyze the low-energy theory of superconductivity in carbon nanotube ropes. A rope is modelled as an array of metallic nanotubes, taking into account phonon-mediated as well as Coulomb interactions, and arbitrary Cooper pair…

We use the momentum space renormalization group to study the influence of phonons and the Coulomb interaction on the superconducting response function of armchair single-walled nanotubes. We do not find superconductivity in undoped single…

We report low temperature transport measurements on suspended single walled carbon nanotubes (both individual tubes and ropes). The technique we have developed, where tubes are soldered on low resistive metallic contacts across a slit,…

Propagation of Cooper pairs in carbon nanotubes in the presence of superconducting correlations is studied theoretically. We find that negative and positive currents induced by impurity scatterings between electrons and holes cancel each…

We theoretically explore the possibility of a superconducting proximity effect in single-walled metallic carbon nanotubes due to the presence of a superconducting substrate. An unconventional double-gap situation can arise in the two bands…

We present a tight binding theory to analyze the motion of electrons between carbon nanotubes bundled into a carbon nanotube rope. The theory is developed starting from a description of the propagating Bloch waves on ideal tubes, and the…

We theoretically study the interplay between electrical and mechanical properties of suspended, doubly clamped carbon nanotubes in which charging effects dominate. In this geometry, the capacitance between the nanotube and the gate(s)…

Effects of the superconducting pair potential on the impurity scattering processes in metallic carbon nanotubes are studied theoretically. The backward scattering of electrons vanishes in the normal state. In the presence of the…

We derive and analyze the low-energy theory of superconductivity in carbon nanotube ropes. A rope is modelled as an array of ballistic metallic nanotubes, taking into account phonon-mediated plus Coulomb interactions, and Josephson coupling…

We investigate the coupling between individual tubes in a rope of single-wall carbon nanotubes using four probe resistance measurements. By introducing defects through the controlled sputtering of the rope we generate a strong non-monotonic…

We demonstrate single electron addition to different strands of a carbon nanotube rope. Anticrossings of anomalous conductance peaks occur in quantum transport measurements through the parallel quantum dots forming on the individual…

We devise an approach to describe the electronic instabilities of doped multi-walled nanotubes, where each shell has in general a manifold of Fermi points. Our analysis relies on the scale dependence of the different scattering processes,…

We report the calculation of paraconductivity in carbon nanotubes above the superconducting transition temperature. The complex behavior of paraconductivity depending upon the tube radius, temperature and magnetic field strength is…

We show that a model of interacting electrons in one dimension is able to explain the order of magnitude as well as the temperature dependence of the critical supercurrents recently measured in nanotube samples placed between…

We study the interplay between disorder and superconductivity in a rope of metallic carbon nanotubes. Based on the time dependent Ginzburg Landau theory, we derive the superconducting transition temperature T$_c$ taking into account the…
