Poor screening of the long-range Coulomb interaction in one-dimensional carbon nanotubes results in a peculiar picture of contact phenomena. Being brought to a contact with a metal, conducting nanotube accumulates electric charge whose…
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)…
We argue that long-range Coulomb forces convert an isolated (N,N) armchair carbon nanotube into a strongly-renormalized *Luttinger liquid*. At high temperatures, we find anomalous temperature dependences for the interaction and impurity…
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…
Transport properties of disordered carbon nanotubes are investigated with including long range Coulomb interactions. The resistivity and optical conductivity are calculated by using the memory functional method. In addition, the effect of…
The screening of Coulomb interaction controls many-body physics in carbon nanotubes, as it tunes the range and strength of the force that acts on charge carriers and binds electron-hole pairs into excitons. In doped tubes, the effective…
We consider the effects of Coulomb interactions on single-wall carbon nanotubes using an on-site Hubbard interaction, u. For the (N,N) armchair tubes the low energy theory is shown to be identical to a 2-chain Hubbard model at half-filling,…
We use numerical simulations to investigate the effect of electrostatics on the source and drain contacts of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors. We find that unscreened charge on the nanotube at the contact-channel interface leads to…
Motivated by recent experiments on electronic transport through a carbon nanotube, we investigate the role of the intra- and inter-orbital Coulomb interactions on the temperature evolution of the conductance. It is shown that small amount…
Carbon nanotubes provide a new class of molecular wires that display new and exciting mesoscopic transport properties. We provide a detailed theoretical description for transport in multi-wall nanotubes, where both disorder and strong…
Mutual Coulomb interactions between electrons lead to a plethora of interesting physical and chemical effects, especially if those interactions involve many fluctuating electrons over large spatial scales. Here, we identify and study in…
Classical and quantum dynamics are important limits for the understanding of the transport characteristics of interacting electrons in nanodevices. Here we apply an intermediate semiclassical approach to investigate the dynamics of two…
Carbon nanotubes provide a remarkably versatile system in which to explore the effects of Coulomb interactions in one dimension. The most dramatic effects of strong electron-electron repulsion are *orthogonality catastrophes*. These…
The interactions between carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and metal adatoms as well as metal contacts are studied by means of ab initio electronic structure calculations. We show that the electronic properties of a semiconducting (8,4) CNT can be…
We consider a class of systems where, due to the large mismatch of dielectric constants, the Coulomb interaction is approximately one-dimensional. Examples include ion channels in lipid membranes and water filled nanopores in silicon or…
Effect of contact interfaces, between metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and external electrodes made also of nanotubes, on the electrical conductance is studied. A tight-binding model with both diagonal and off-diagonal…
Recent experiments about the low temperature behaviour of a Single Wall Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) showed typical Coulomb Blockade (CB) peaks in the zero bias conductance and allowed us to investigate the energy levels of interacting…
Density functional methods have been used to calculate the electronic properties of aligned smalldiameter single-walled carbon nanotubes under hydrostatic pressures. Abrupt pressure induced semiconductor-metal and metal-semiconductor…
Recent fluorescence spectroscopy experiments on single wall carbon nanotubes reveal substantial deviations of observed absorption and emission energies from predictions of noninteracting models of the electronic structure. Nonetheless, the…
Microscopic derivation of the Coulomb exchange interaction for electrons located on the nanotubes is presented. Our derivation is based on the many-particle quantum hydrodynamic method. We demonstrate the role of the curvature of the…
