Multiwalled carbon nanotubes with tetragonal cross section frequently form junctions with flattened multi-walled carbon nanotubes, a kind of carbon nanoribbon. The three-dimensional structure of the junctions is revealed by transmission-electron-microscopy-based tomography. Two types of junction, parallel and diagonal, are found. The formation mechanism of these two types of junction is discussed in terms of the origami mechanism that was previously proposed to explain the formation of carbon nanoribbons and nanotetrahedra.
