Abstract
Extensive experimental and theoretical investigations of nanostructures began in 1991 after the discovery of carbon nanotubes as tubular forms based on the graphite sheet (graphene) [1]. The results of carbon-based nanostructures studies (both experimental and theoretical ones) are summarized in several books [2–9]. The point defects influence on different properties of carbon nanotubes was studied in [10, 11]. In [11] the special attention was paid to the changes in the electronic properties of carbon nanotubes induced by the substitution of nitrogen, boron, or oxygen for C atoms.
