Electronic excitations of double-walled armchair carbon nanotubes
The low-frequency electronic excitations in double-walled armchair carbon nanotubes are studied within the random-phase approximation. The intertube atomic overlaps significantly affect the low-energy bands and thus enrich the low-frequency single-particle excitations and collective excitations. They induce more plasmon modes, reduce the plasmon strength, and change acoustic plasmons into optic...
متن کاملMulti-Stable Conductance States in Metallic Double-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Electrical transport properties of individual metallic double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) were measured down to liquid helium temperature, and multi-stable conductance states were found in DWCNTs. At a certain temperature, DWCNTs can switch continuously between two or more electronic states, but below certain temperature, DWCNTs are stable only at one of them. The temperature for switching...
متن کاملBundles of identical double-walled carbon nanotubes.
In a sample produced by catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD), the structure of the carbon nanotubes (diameter and helicity) which governs their electronic properties, is determined by electron diffraction. We found that most of the smallest bundles are constituted of identical double-walled carbon nanotubes.
متن کاملBuckling of Double-walled Carbon Nanotubes
This paper is concerned with the buckling of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) under axial load. The DWCNTs are modelled as two cylindrical shells, one shell nested in the other and Winkler springs are introduced to connect them in order to simulate the van der Waals forces between the two nanotubes. By using the Donnell thin shell theory, we derive the governing equations for the bucklin...
متن کاملDependence of Geometric and Spectroscopic Properties of Double-walled Boron Nitride Nanotubes on Interwall Distance
We have used density functional theory (DFT) and time dependent (TD)-DFT to systematically investigate the dependency of the geometric and vibroelectronic properties of zigzag and armchair-type doublewalled boron nitride nanotubes ((0,m)@(0,n) and (m,m) @(n,n)-DWBNNTs) on the interwall distance (ΔR) and the number of unit cells. The results of the calculations showed that their structural stabi...
