This article reviews the electronic and transport properties of carbon nanotubes. The focus is
mainly theoretical, but when appropriate the relation with experimental results is mentioned …

Carbon is a unique and very versatile element which is capable of forming different
architectures at the nanoscale. Over the last 20 years, new members of the carbon …

Carbon nanotubes are quasi one-dimensional nanostructures with unique eletrical
prroperties that make them prime candidates for molecular electronics, which is certainly a …

The Raman scattering of single-and few-layered WS2 is studied as a function of the number
of SWS layers and the excitation wavelength in the visible range (488, 514 and 647 nm). For …

Nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes have been synthesized using pyrolysis and
characterized by scanning tunneling spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy …

Crossing single-walled carbon nanotubes can be joined by electron beam welding to form
molecular junctions. Stable junctions of various geometries are created in situ in a …

Graphene is a two-dimensional network in which sp2-hybridized carbon atoms are arranged
in two different triangular sub-lattices (A and B). By incorporating nitrogen atoms into …

A review of the electronic, thermal and mechanical properties of nanotubes is presented,
with particular reference to properties that differ from those of the bulk counterparts and to …

The catalytic growth of single-wall carbon nanotubes is investigated by high-resolution
transmission electron microscopy. The similarities between the samples synthesized from …

The coalescence of single-walled nanotubes is studied in situ under electron irradiation at
high temperature in a transmission electron microscope. The merging process is …
