Most of the works devoted so far to the electronic band structure of multiwall nanotubes have been restricted to the case where the individual layers have the same helicity. By comparison, much less is known on the electronic properties of…
The dynamical conductance of electrically contacted single-walled carbon nanotubes is measured from dc to 10 GHz as a function of source-drain voltage in both the low-field and high-field limits. The ac conductance of the nanotube itself is…
Cavity optomechanics allows the characterization of a vibration mode, its cooling and quantum manipulation using electromagnetic fields. Regarding nanomechanical as well as electronic properties, single wall carbon nanotubes are a…
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…
The curvature effects in carbon nanotubes are studied analytically as a function of chirality. The pi-orbitals are found to be significantly rehybridized in all tubes, so that they are never normal to the tubes' surface. This results in a…
We study theoretically nonlocal spin transport in a ballistic carbon nanotube contacted to two ferromagnetic leads and two normal-metal leads. When the magnetizations of the two ferromagnets are changed from a parallel to an antiparallel…
We use a simultaneous flow of ethylene and hydrogen gases to grow single wall carbon nanotubes by chemical vapor deposition. Strong coupling to the gate is inferred from transport measurements for both metallic and semiconducting tubes. At…
We fabricated reproducible high transparency superconducting contacts consisting of superconducting Ti/Al/Ti trilayers to gated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The reported semiconducting SWCNT have normal state differential…
We report on experiments conducted on single walled carbon nanotube bundles aligned in chains and connected through a natural contact barrier. The dependence upon the temperature of the transport properties is investigated for samples…
The influence of defects on electron transport in single-wall carbon nanotube field effect transistors (CNFETs) is probed by combined scanning gate microscopy (SGM) and scanning impedance microscopy (SIM). SGM reveals a localized field…
The out-of-equilibrium electron transport of carbon nanotube semiconducting quantum dot placed in a magnetic field is studied in the Kondo regime by means of the non-equilibrium Green functions. The equation of motion method is used. For…
Single wall carbon nanotubes cooled to cryogenic temperatures are outstanding electronic as well as nano-electromechanical model systems. To probe a largely unperturbed system, we measure a suspended carbon-nanotube device where the…
By means of pseudopotential calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) we studied the effect of hydrogenation on electronic properties of armchair single-wall carbon nanotubes. The calculations demonstrate strong preference for…
We study, theoretically, the ground state spin of a carbon nanotube in the presence of an external potential. We find that when the external potential is applied to a part of the nanotube, its variation changes the single electron spectrum…
How carbon nanotubes behave in an external electric field? What will be the relation between the intensity of the electric field and the tube's deformation? What are the geometry effects on the response of carbon nanotubes to electric…

We propose carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with magnetic impurities as a versatile platform to achieve unconventional Kondo physics, where the CNT bath is gapped by the spin-orbit interaction and surface curvature. While the strong-coupling phase…
The modeling of carbon nanotube-metal contacts is important from both basic and applied view points. For many applications, it is important to design contacts such that the transmission is dictated by intrinsic properties of the nanotube…
