It is shown that a periodic potential applied to a nanotube can lock electrons into incompressible states. Depending on whether electrons are weakly or tightly bound to the potential, excitation gaps open up either due to the Bragg…

Electronic compressibility, the second derivative of ground state energy with respect to total electron number, is a measurable quantity that reveals the interaction strength of a system and can be used to characterize the orderly…

Electron-electron interactions strongly affect the behavior of low-dimensional systems. In one dimension (1D), arbitrarily weak interactions qualitatively alter the ground state producing a Luttinger liquid (LL) which has now been observed…

Electron motion in a (n,1) carbon nanotube is shown to correspond to a de Broglie wave propagating along a helical line on the nanotube wall. This helical motion leads to periodicity of the electron potential energy in the presence of an…

Single-wall carbon nanotubes are almost ideal systems for the investigation of exotic many-body effects due to non-Fermi liquid behavior of interacting electrons in one dimension. Recent theoretical and experimental results are reviewed…

We introduce two simple models to study the effect of a spatially localized transverse electric field on the low-energy electronic structure of semiconducting carbon nanotubes. Starting from the Dirac Hamiltonian for the low energy states…

We report measurements of the spatial dependence of the electron energy distribution in carbon nanotubes, from which electron interactions are determined. Using nonequilibrium tunneling spectroscopy with multiple superconducting probes, we…

Electron interactions reinforce minigaps induced in metallic nanotubes by an external field and turn the gap field dependence into a universal power law. An exactly solvable Gross-Neveau model with an SU(4) symmetry is derived for neutral…

We study here polaron (soliton) states of electrons or holes in a model describing carbon-type nanotubes. In the Hamiltonian of the system we take into account the electron-phonon interaction that arises from the deformation dependencies of…

Electron properties of Carbon nanotubes can change qualitatively in a transverse electric field. In metallic tubes the sign of Fermi velocity can be reversed in a sufficiently strong field, while in semiconducting tubes the effective mass…

Electron properties of Carbon nanotubes in a transverse magnetic field are studied using a model of a massless Dirac particle on a cylinder. The problem possesses supersymmetry which protects low energy states and ensures stability of the…

Properties of the "electron gas" - in which conduction electrons interact by means of Coulomb forces but ionic potentials are neglected - change dramatically depending on the balance between kinetic energy and Coulomb repulsion. The limits…

Conditions at which a quasi-one-dimensional (1D) electron system can be considered as a quantum liquid of impenetrable charged particles are theoretically analyzed. In the presence of an inert, neutralizing background, a motion of…

Two- and three-dimensional electron gases with a uniform neutralizing background are studied at negative compressibility. Parametrized expressions for the dielectric function are used to access this strong-coupling regime, where the…

Electronic states in nanographite ribbons with zigzag edges are studied using the extended Hubbard model with nearest neighbor Coulomb interactions. The nearest Coulomb interactions stabilize electronic states with the opposite electric…

Using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation, we study the compressibility instability of the interacting electrons in bilayer graphene. The chemical potential and the compressibility of the electrons can be significantly altered by…

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)…

The quantum-mechanical orbitals in carbon nanotubes are doubly degenerate over a large number of states in the Coulomb blockade regime. We argue that this experimental observation indicates that electrons are reflected without mode mixing…

A Hubbard-Luttinger model is developed for qualitative description of one-dimensional motion of interacting Pi-conductivity-electrons in carbon single-wall nanotubes at low temperatures. The low-lying excitations in one-dimensional electron…

According to band theory, an ideal undoped (n,n) carbon nanotube is metallic. We show that the electron-electron interaction causes it to become Mott insulating with a spin gap. More interestingly, upon doping it develops superconducting…
