THEORETICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF QUANTUM BALLISTIC CONDUCTION THROUGH MULTIWALLED CARBON NANOTUBES

We study, by utilizing analytic techniques, electrical conduction in multiwalled carbon nanotubes. In fact, by using the well-known concept of Fermi velocity and the Drude theory, a mathematical relationship for conductance is derived so that this conductance is found to be quantized. In addition, our results are compared with experimental data.
