Single-wall carbon nanotubes anisotropy

More recently, a chemical map of gadolinium atoms in metallofullerene molecules (Gd Cs2), themselves inside a single-wall carbon nanotube was obtained. Individual Gd atoms could be detected [17], Nanotubes [18, 19] and spheres [20, 21] were also studied, introducing anisotropy and relativistic effects in the simulation of LELS. The agreement is particularly...
