This paper reports a theoretical characterization of carbon nanotubes matrices using a full-wave undulatory description of charge carriers, self-consistent with external and self-generated potentials. The effect of nanotubes coupling on charge and current confinement is described, by a new in-house simulation toolkit that can easily solve for 3D arrays of packed nanotubes, possibly multi-wall, in a multi-band framework. The availability of such a tool could be of crucial importance in view of the multiplicity of nanotechnology applications of CNT arrays as sensors, field effect transitors, quantum dots, interconnects and antennas.

Abstract
This paper reports a theoretical characterization of carbon nanotubes matrices using a full-wave undulatory description of charge carriers, self-consistent with external and self-generated potentials. The effect of nanotubes coupling on charge and current confinement is described, by a new in-house simulation toolkit that can easily solve for 3D arrays of packed nanotubes, possibly multi-wall, in a multi-band framework. The availability of such a tool could be of crucial importance in view of the multiplicity of nanotechnology applications of CNT arrays as sensors, field effect transitors, quantum dots, interconnects and antennas.File in questo prodotto:
