Abstract (AI)
▪ Abstract The unusual structure and properties of carbon nanotubes are presented, with particular reference to single-wall nanotubes (SWNTs) and nanotube properties that differ from those of their bulk counterparts. The atomic structure; electronic structure; and vibrational, optical, mechanical, and thermal properties are discussed, with reference made to nanotube junctions, nanotube filling, and double-wall nanotubes (DWNTs). Special attention is given to resonance Raman spectroscopy at the single nanotube level. The status of current research in this field is assessed and opportunities for future research are identified.
Key Findings
1
Carbon nanotubes exhibit unusual atomic, electronic, vibrational, optical, mechanical, and thermal properties that differ from those of bulk carbon materials.
2
Nanotube junctions, filling, and double-wall nanotubes are identified as important structural configurations influencing nanotube properties.
3
Resonance Raman spectroscopy enables investigation of individual nanotubes at the single-nanotube level.
4
Single-wall nanotubes receive particular attention because their structure and properties provide distinctive nanoscale behavior compared with bulk counterparts.
5
The field’s current research status is assessed, and opportunities for future investigation are identified.
