INFLUENCE OF IMPURITIES AND DEFECTS ON ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF CARBON NANOTUBES

  • Conference paper
Carbon Nanomaterials in Clean Energy Hydrogen Systems

Abstract

The influence of vacancies and defects on equilibrium configuration and electronic structure of single-wall carbon nanotubes is investigated. In the framework of semi-empirical PM3-method the IR and UV absorption spectra of fragment (12, 0)-tube C192 and of the same fragment with the vacancies of simplest kinds and with Stone-Wales defect are calculated.
