Theoretical Elastic Properties of Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Carbon fiber nanotubes are a relatively new material with amazing physical and electrical properties. In this paper we report the results of the first-principles calculations for the elastic properties of several single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) with diameters between 4 and 17 !. We show that the torsional and axial strain potential energy curves can be well described in terms of the experim...
متن کاملElectronic Properties of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
This communication describes scanning tunnelling microscopy investigations of the electronic properties of singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). First, the unique relationship between the atomic structure and electronic properties of SWNTs is presented. Second, structural defects in nanotubes are addressed, and quantum size effects in SWNTs are discussed. Lastly, the effects of magnetic impuri...
متن کاملSingle - Walled 4 . Single - Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are hollow, long cylinders with extremely large aspect ratios, made of one atomic sheet of carbon atoms in a honeycomb lattice. They possess extraordinary thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties and are considered as one of the most promising nanomaterials for applications and basic research. This chapter describes the structural, electronic, vibra...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Investigation of The Elastic Constants and Moduli of Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Determination of the mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes is an essential step in their applications from macroscopic composites to nano-electro-mechanical systems. In this paper we report the results of a series of molecular dynamics simulations carried out to predict the elastic constants, i.e. the elements of the stiffness tensor, and the elastic moduli, namely the Young’s and shear mod...
متن کاملAn elastic shell model for characterizing single-walled carbon nanotubes.
This paper proposes a two-dimensional elastic shell model to characterize the deformation of single-walled carbon nanotubes using the in-plane rigidity, Poisson ratio, bending rigidity and off-plane torsion rigidity as independent elastic constants. It was found that the off-plane torsion rigidity of a single-walled carbon nanotube is not zero due to the off-plane change in the π-orbital electr...
