Peculiarities of conductance of carbon nanotube‐based quantum dots

Abstract: ABSTRACT:Within the framework of the surface Green's function matching method, we carried out calculations of the differential conductance of symmetrically and asymmetrically connected armchair (n, n)-zigzag (2n, 0)-armchair (n, n) carbon nanotubes with different lengths of the middle section and infinitely long ends. It is shown that the (n, n)/(2n, 0)/(n, n) segment, when n is not a multiple of 3, behaves as a quantum dot and has a conduction gap even for short middle segments. The position of the conductanc… Show more

“…Variations of muscle contraction were measured using hypersensitive strain gauges, which are based on measuring the change in resistance of an array of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) by deformation [20]. SWCNTs were located in the back of the micropipette, and its front part was attached to the investigated muscle tendon.…”

“…Ever since the carbon nanotube (CNT) was discovered by Iijima 1, a large growing number of studies have been devoted to investigate various aspects of this novel material 2–4. The CNTs are widely applicable from nanoelectronics to nanobiotechnology; they are used as either electron field emitters or artificial muscles 5, 6.…”
