investigation of the electronic properties of carbon and iii-v nanotubes

boron nitride semiconducting zigzag swcnt, $b_{cb}$$n_{cn}$$c_{1-cb-cn}$, as a potential candidate for making nanoelectronic devices was examined. in contrast to the previous dft calculations, wherein just one boron and nitrogen doping configuration have been considered, here for the average over all possible configurations, density of states (dos) was calculated in terms of boron and nitrogen ...

Fabrication of Carbon Nanotubes

The most common method used to fabricate carbon nanotubes is electric-arc discharge. An electric arc is an electrical breakdown of a gas which produces an ongoing plasma discharge, similar to the instant spark, resulting from a current flowing through normally nonconductive material such as air. The arc occurs in the gas-filled space between two conductive electrodes (often made of carbon) and ...
