Structure and Production of Further Tubular Carbon Materials

Structure and Production of Further Tubular Carbon Materials 

Apart from the hitherto described single-waUed and multiwalled carbon nanotubes, there is a variety of further structures with tubular or related geometries. These include bamboo-hke and so-called cup-stacked nanotubes as well as nano-homs and hehcal nanotubes. like normal SWNT and MWNT they consist of curved graphene layers, but they feature additional structural peculiarities that will be considered in the following sections.
