In recent years, predictive computational modeling has become a cornerstone for the study
of fundamental electronic, optical, and thermal properties in complex forms of condensed …

A brief review is given of electronic and transport properties of carbon nanotubes obtained
mainly in ak· p scheme. The topics include a giant Aharonov–Bohm effect on the band gap …

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes are shown to be ballistic conductors at room temperature,
with mean free paths of the order of tens of microns. The measurements are performed both …

We report on the intershell electron transport in multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). To
do this, local and nonlocal four-point measurements are used to study the current path …

Carbon nanotubes, can be distinctly metallic or semiconducting depending on their diameter
and chirality. Here we show that continuously varying the chirality by mechanical torsion can …

In this paper we simulate the resistive heating of carbon nanotubes (CNT's) during field
emission (FE) using the one-dimensional heat equation including radiation and conductive …

The electronic structure of rare earths is an important topic (covered in chapter 8), and the
4felectron configuration determines their properties, including magnetic and optical …

Quantum tunneling is an essential issue in quantum physics. Especially, the rapid
development of nanotechnology in recent years promises a lot of applications in condensed …

Rapid developments in the electronic industry have greatly benefited society. However,
more recently some high-end technological applications have seen their advances limited …
