Richard Czerw,Mauricio Terrones,Jean-Christophe Charlier,Xavier Blase,B. Foley,R. Kamalakaran,Nicole Grobert,Humberto Terrones,D. Tekleab,P.M. Ajayan,Werner J. Blau,Manfred Rühle,David L. Carroll +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, pyridine-like N structures are observed to be responsible for the metallic behavior and prominent features near the Fermi level, which could pave the way to real molecular heterojunction devices.

TL;DR: In this article, a self-assembly pyrolytic route to large arrays of aligned n-type nanotubes (15-80 nm OD and <100 μm in length) is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Substrate-interface interactions between carbon nanotubes and the supporting substrate
TL;DR: In this article, the local interfacial electronics between multiwalled carbon nanotubes and several supporting substrates has been investigated by utilizing the current transients in scanning tunneling spectroscopy, and a systematic variation in this local potential, as a function of tube diameter, is observed for both metallic and semimetallic substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distributed response analysis of conductive behavior in single molecules
Marc in het Panhuis,R. W. Munn,Paul L. A. Popelier,Jonathan N. Coleman,B. Foley,Werner J. Blau +5 more
TL;DR: The ab initio computational approach of distributed response analysis is used to quantify how electrons move across conjugated molecules in an electric field, in analogy to conduction, and promises to be valuable for characterizing the conductive behavior of single molecules in electronic devices.
