Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of gas adsorption and collisions on electrical transport in single-walled carbon nanotubes
TL;DR: Degassing of bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes in vacuum at 500 K is found to drive the thermoelectricpower (TEP) strongly negative, indicating that the degassed metallic tubes in a bundle are n type.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical phonons in polar semiconductor nanowires
TL;DR: In this article, the long-range dipolar interactions in a crystalline cubic polar semiconducting nanowire give rise to an important splitting of the Raman-active transverse optic (TO) and longitudinal optic (LO) phonons at the center of the Brillouin zone.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) on gases in contact with the tube walls are discussed in terms of the diffusion thermopower for a rope, and a new scattering channel associated with adsorbed molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermoelectric study of hydrogen storage in carbon nanotubes
TL;DR: In situ resistivity and thermoelectric power (S) have been used to study the nature of the adsorption of hydrogen in bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes for H 2 pressure P ≤ 1 atm and temperatures 77 K
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermoelectric Study of Hydrogen Storage in Carbon Nanotubes
TL;DR: In situ resistivity and thermoelectric power have been used to study the nature of the adsorption of hydrogen in bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes for H2 pressure P < 1 atm and temperatures 77 K
