最近的发展使用富勒烯生产中典型的合成方法，已用于生成直径与富勒烯直径相当的石墨纳米管：“碳纳米管”。包含这些纤维的单个中空同心石墨纳米管可以可视化为由卷起的单片石墨构成的。我们讨论了这些纳米管电子结构中螺旋对称性的使用，以及我们使用经验和第一原理技术在带隙和应变能与纳米管半径方面观察到的趋势。凭借潜在的电子和结构应用，这些材料似乎是当前十年合适的合成目标。
Recent developments using synthetic methods typical of fullerene production have been used to generate graphitic nanotubes with diameters on the order of fullerene diameters: ''carbon nanotubes.'' The individual hollow concentric graphitic nanotubes that comprise these fibers can be visualized as constructed from rolled-up single sheets of graphite. We discuss the use of helical symmetry for the electronic structure of these nanotubes, and the resulting trends we observe in both band gap and strain energy versus nanotube radius, using both empirical and first-principles techniques. With potential electronic and structural applications, these materials appear to be appropriate synthetic targets for the current decade.
