Energetics and electronic structures of individual atoms adsorbed on carbon nanotubes

Article Abstract:

The adsorption of individual atoms on the semiconducting and metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) is investigated using the first principles pseudopotential plane wave method within density functional theory. Results suggest that carbon nanotubes can be functionalized in different ways by their coverage with different atoms, showing interesting applications such as ID nanomagnets of nanoconductors, conducting connects, and so forth.

High quality double-walled carbon nanotube super bundles grown in a hydrogen-free atmosphere

Article Abstract:

High-quality double-walled carbon nanotube (DWNT) super bundles were grown above a bowl-like cathode by arc discharge in a hydrogen-free atmosphere. For the formation of DWNTs, the cathode geometry and catalysts are found to be important.
