Abstract

Using concepts of defects in graphene lattices (see image) a new class of semiconducting carbon nanotubes is predicted, with an unusual one-dimensional electronic structure. These CNTs are of comparable stability to known carbon nanostructures, have similar mechanical properties, and may be useful in applications based on a combination of electronic transport properties.
