Transverse electric field–induced deformation of armchair single-walled carbon nanotube

Transverse electric field–induced deformation of armchair single-walled carbon nanotube

<p>Abstract</p> <p>The deformation of armchair single-walled carbon nanotube under transverse electric field has been investigated using density functional theory. The results show that the circular cross-sections of the nanotubes are deformed to elliptic ones, in which the tube di...
