A model dielectric response function for metallic nanotube ropes
We propose a model dielectric function for ropes of single-walled nanotubes distributed in a glassy graphite host medium. We study the significance of the bosonic charge excitations arising in interacting quasi-one-dimensional systems in the screening processes. We also pay special attention to the role of the intertube Coulomb interactions. In order to compare with experiments, weak relaxation...
متن کاملSuperconductivity in carbon nanotube ropes
We investigate the conditions in which superconductivity may develop in ropes of carbon nanotubes. It is shown that the interaction among a large number of metallic nanotubes favors the appearance of a metallic phase in the ropes, intermediate between respective phases with spin-density-wave and superconducting correlations. These arise in samples with about 100 metallic nanotubes or more, wher...
متن کاملElectronic structure of carbon nanotube ropes
We present a tight-binding theory to analyze the motion of electrons between carbon nanotubes bundled into a carbon nanotube rope. The theory is developed starting from a description of propagating Bloch waves on ideal tubes, and the effects of intertube motion are treated perturbatively on this basis. Expressions for the interwall tunneling amplitudes between states on neighboring tubes are de...
متن کاملPhase diagram of carbon nanotube ropes
The zero-temperature phase diagram of carbon nanotube ropes is studied using a computational framework that incorporates the renormalization of intratube interactions and the effect of intertube Coulomb screening. This allows us to undertake a systematic analysis as a function of the number of metallic nanotubes in the rope and the effective strength of the phonon-mediated interaction. We find ...
متن کاملCrystalline Ropes of Metallic Carbon Nanotubes
Fullerene single-wall nanotubes (SWNTs) were produced in yields of more than 70 percent by condensation of a laser-vaporized carbon-nickel-cobalt mixture at 1200degreesC. X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy showed that these SWNTs are nearly uniform in diameter and that they self-organize into "ropes," which consist of 100 to 500 SWNTs in a two-dimensional triangular lattice with a lattic...
