Transport measurements on a bundle of single-walled carbon nanotubes have been made below 4.2 K as a function of side gate and source-drain bias voltage. The transport of an individual nanotube is described by the Coulomb blockade effect. The zero-dimensional quantum states of the nanotube become cl

β¦ Synopsis
We present transport measurements of ferromagnetically contacted carbon nanotubes. In both single-and multi-walled nanotube devices, a spin valve effect is observed due to spin-polarized transport. In one single-walled nanotube device, the spin-valve effect is suppressed as the influence of Coulomb charging is observed at around 10 K. To help understand the interplay between the Coulomb charging and the spin-polarized transport we investigated the temperature dependence of the carbon nanotube magnetoresistance.

The electron spin resonance (ESR) of carbon nanotubes at various stages of purification have been measured between 4 and 296 K The conduction electron spin resonance is identified and the results imply that metallic and/or narrow gap semiconducting nanotubes are actually present as predicted by theo
Within a scattering framework, a theoretical study is presented for the spin-polarized quasiparticle transport in ferromagnet/d-wave superconductor junctions. We find that the subgap conductance behavior is qualitatively different from a nonmagnetic junction, and can also be significantly different
