    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbon nanotubes; Monte Carlo method; drift velocity; mobility; electron-phonon scattering; and electron-defect scattering.;

    Abstract : Since the advent of nanoscale material based electronic devices, there has been a considerable interest in exploring carbon nanotubes from fundamental science and technological perspectives. In carbon nanotubes, the atoms form a cylindrical structure with a diameter of the order 1nm. READ MORE

  4. 2. Tight-binding calculations of electron scattering rates in semiconducting zigzag carbon nanotubes

    Author : Kannan Thiagarajan; Ulf Lindefelt; Hans-Erik Nilsson; Sven Öberg; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tight-binding; carbon nanotubes; electron-phonon scattering; backscattering; forward scattering; Semiconductor physics; Halvledarfysik;

    Abstract : The technological interest in a material depends very much on its electrical, magnetic, optical and/or mechanical properties. In carbon nanotubes the atoms form a cylindrical structure with a diameter of the order 1 nm, but the nanotubes can be up to several hundred micrometers in length. READ MORE
