A Review of Electronic Band Structure of Graphene and Carbon Nanotubes Using Tight Binding
The electronic band structure variations of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) using Huckle/tight binding approximation theory are studied. According to the chirality indices, the related expressions for energy dispersion variations of these elements are derived and plotted for zigzag and chira...
