We present self-consistent quantum transport calculations for device structures based on metallic and semiconducting carbon nanotubes. We combine the non-equilibrium Green's function formalism with an extended Huยจckel Hamiltonian and a Poisson solver for a realistic representation of the device and

Evidence for the formation of an archetypal hemi-toroidal link structure between adjacent concentric walls in pyrolytic carbon nanotubes is presented. The observed and simulated TEM images for such structures are in excellent agreement. This study suggests that double-walled carbon nanotubes, in wh
Carbon nanotubes of high intrinsic resistivity have been studied. The conductance of the nanotubes has been measured as a function of voltage and temperature. The results on a sample, whose contact resistances nearly equal the resistance of the tube itself, are interpreted in terms of strong tunneli
