Superconductivity in entirely end-bonded multiwalled carbon nanotubes.
We report that entirely end-bonded multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) can exhibit superconductivity with a transition temperature (T(c)) as high as 12 K, which is approximately 30 times greater than T(c) reported for ropes of single-walled nanotubes. We find that the emergence of this superconductivity is highly sensitive to the junction structures of the Au electrode/MWNTs. This reveals that...
متن کاملHigh-Tc Superconductivity in Entirely End-bonded Multi-walled nanotubes
One-dimensional (1D) systems face some obstructions that prevent the emergence of superconductivity, such as Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid states and Peierls transition. Carbon nanotubes (CNs) are one of the best candidates for investigating the possibility of 1D superconductivity and its interplay with such obstructions. Only two groups to our knowledge, however, have experimentally reported super...

متن کاملTheory of superconductivity in multiwalled carbon nanotubes
We devise an approach to describe the electronic instabilities of doped multiwalled nanotubes, where each shell has in general a manifold of Fermi points. Our analysis relies on the scale dependence of the different scattering processes, showing that a pairing instability arises for a large enough number of Fermi points as a consequence of their particular geometric arrangement. The instability...
متن کاملMultiwalled Carbon Nanotubes: Environmental Application
The high external surface area leads to a significant increase in the surface contact between the gaseous or liquid reactants and the active phase supported on this nanostructured host which is a prerequisite for its use as catalyst support, especially in liquid phase medium where diffusion rate is predominant [2]. Also, the strong interactions between the exposed prismatic planes and the depos...
