Electrical Switching in Metallic Carbon Nanotubes
Young-Woo Son, Jisoon Ihm, Marvin L. Cohen +2
We present first-principles calculations of quantum transport which show that the resistance of metallic carbon nanotubes can be changed dramatically with homogeneous transverse el…
Reduction of Activation Energy Barrier of Stone-Wales Transformation in Endohedral Metallofullerenes
Woon Ih Choi, Gunn Kim, Seungwu Han +1
We examine effects of encapsulated metal atoms inside a C molecule on the activation energy barrier to the Stone-Wales transformation using {\it ab initio} calculations. The…
Encapsulation and polymerization of acetylene molecules inside a carbon nanotube
Gunn Kim, Yeonju Kim, Jisoon Ihm
We study the energetics of acetylene () molecules inside a carbon nanotube (CNT) using the {\it ab initio} pseudopotential method. The encapsulation energy of a singl…
Formation, Manipulation, and Elasticity Measurement of a Nanometric Column of Water Molecules
H. Choe, M. -H. Hong, Y. Seo +5
Nanometer-sized columns of condensed water molecules are created by an atomic-resolution force microscope operated in ambient conditions. Unusual stepwise decrease of the force gra…
