Applications of CNTs based on their electrical properties strongly depend on the diameter and helicity as well as parity.2 3 Doping of CNTs by boron and nitrogen renders them p-type and retype, respectively. MWNTs and SWNTs doped with nitrogen 4 17 and boron"1 9 have been reported. Boron-doped carbon nanotubes appear to exhibit enhanced electron field emission due to the presence of the boron atom at the nanotube edges.20 2 N-doped CNTs show retype behavior regardless of tube chirality.22...
